Abstract excerpt
Sinorhizobium sp. strain BR816 possesses two nodPQ copies, providing activated sulfate (3'-phosphoadenosine-5'-phosphosulfate [PAPS]) needed for the biosynthesis of sulfated Nod factors. It was previously shown that the Nod factors synthesized by a nodPQ double mutant are not structurally different from those of the wild-type strain. In this study, we describe the characterization of a third sulfate activation...
