Abstract excerpt
Burkholderia multivorans ATCC 17616 ordinarily produces insufficient amounts of N-acyl homoserine lactones (AHLs) to promote AHL-dependent formation of the pigment violacein by the reporter strain Chromobacterium violaceum CV026. We have isolated AHL-overproducing mutants of strain 17616 by screening for variants which do cross-feed AHLs to strain CV026. Nucleotide-sequence analysis of the bmuIR locus which...
