This subsystem's description is:
The macromolecular synthesis (MMS) operon contains three essential genes (rpsU, dnaG, rpoD) whose products ribosomal protein S21 (rpsU), DNA primase (dnaG), and the 70-kDal sigma subunit of RNA are necessary for the initiation of protein, DNA, and RNA synthesis respectively."
