Abstract excerpt
The cyl genes of Streptococcus agalactiae are required for the production of hemolysin. Based on the observation that nonhemolytic S. agalactiae mutants do not produce pigment, a close genetic linkage between hemolysin and pigment has been postulated. To investigate this genetic linkage and to identify genes involved in the production of the S. agalactiae pigment, we screened mutant libraries for nonpigmented...
