Abstract excerpt
The Ralstonia solanacearum hrp gene cluster codes for components of a type III secretion pathway necessary for the secretion of PopA1, a hypersensitive response-like elicitor protein. In the present study, we show that several other Hrp-secreted proteins can be detected by growing wild-type bacteria in minimal medium in the presence of Congo red. Two of these proteins, PopB and PopC, are encoded by genes located...
