Abstract excerpt
The role of three key nitrogen regulatory genes, glnB (encoding the P(II) protein), glnZ (encoding the P(z) protein), and glnD (encoding the GlnD protein), in regulation of poly-3-hydroxybutyrate (PHB) biosynthesis by ammonia in Azospirillum brasilense Sp7 was investigated. It was observed that glnB glnZ and glnD mutants produce substantially higher amounts of PHB than the wild type produces during the active...
