Abstract excerpt
Cold stress induces a lag phase in the growth cycle of Rhizobium DDSS69. Two cold sensitive mutants of DDSS69 were generated through Tn5 tagged mutagenesis. These mutants do not grow below 15 degrees C but show a growth curve comparable with the wild type grown at 5 degrees C. There is a rapid induction of two high molecular weight membrane polypeptides of 135 and 119 kDa within 15 min of exposure to 5 degrees C...
