AlgT (sigma22) controls alginate production and tolerance to environmental stress in Pseudomonas syringae.

Journal of bacteriology - 1 Dec 1999

Keith L M, Bender C L

Abstract excerpt

Pseudomonas aeruginosa and the phytopathogen P. syringae produce the exopolysaccharide alginate, which is a copolymer of D-mannuronic and L-guluronic acids. One of the key regulatory genes controlling alginate biosynthesis in P. aeruginosa is algT, which encodes the alternate sigma factor, sigma(22). In the present study, the algT gene product from P. syringae pv. syringae showed 90% amino acid identity with its...
