Role of energy metabolism in conversion of nonmucoid Pseudomonas aeruginosa to the mucoid phenotype

1 Apr 1992

Abstract excerpt

Phosphatidylcholine, the major component of lung surfactant, when supplied as the sole source of phosphate for Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1, resulted in conversion of as much as 2% of the population to the mucoid phenotype under continuous culture conditions over a 24-day culture period. In addition, growth in phosphatidylcholine resulted in the highest yields of extracellular alginate compared with other...
