Developmental aggregation of Myxococcus xanthus requires frgA, an frz-related gene.

Journal of bacteriology - 1 Dec 2000

Cho K, Treuner-Lange A, O'Connor K A, Zusman D R

Abstract excerpt

Myxococcus xanthus is a gram-negative bacterium which has a complex life cycle that includes multicellular fruiting body formation. Frizzy mutants are characterized by the formation of tangled filaments instead of hemispherical fruiting bodies on fruiting agar. Mutations in the frz genes have been shown to cause defects in directed motility, which is essential for both vegetative swarming and fruiting body...
