Abstract excerpt
The exbBD genes of Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO were cloned by complementation of the growth defect of an Escherichia coli exbB tolQ double mutant on iron-restricted medium. Nucleotide sequence analysis confirmed that these genes are contiguous and preceded by a second tonB gene in this organism, which we have designated tonB2. lacZ promoter fusions confirmed that expression of the tonB2-exbB-exbD genes is...
