Identification of genes required for adventurous gliding motility in Myxococcus xanthus with the transposable element mariner.

Molecular microbiology - 1 Jul 2003

Youderian Philip, Burke Neal, White David J, Hartzell Patricia L

Abstract excerpt

Myxococcus xanthus glides over solid surfaces without the use of flagella, dependent upon two large sets of adventurous (A) and social (S) genes, using two different mechanisms of gliding motility. Myxococcus xanthus A-S- double mutants form non-motile colonies lacking migratory cells at their edges. We have isolated 115 independent mutants of M. xanthus with insertions of transposon magellan-4 in potential A...
