Novel motility mutants of synechocystis strain PCC 6803 generated by in vitro transposon mutagenesis.

Journal of bacteriology - 1 Oct 2001

Bhaya D, Takahashi A, Shahi P, Grossman A R

Abstract excerpt

We screened for transposon-generated mutants of Synechocystis sp. strain PCC 6803 that exhibited aberrant phototactic movement. Of the 300 mutants generated, about 50 have been partially characterized; several contained transposons in genes encoding chemotaxis-related proteins, while others mapped to novel genes. These novel genes and their possible roles in motility are discussed.
