Identification of an operon involved in sulfolipid biosynthesis in Rhodobacter sphaeroides
1 Oct 1992
Abstract excerpt
Two new mutants of Rhodobacter sphaeroides deficient in sulfolipid accumulation were isolated by directly screening mutagenized cell lines for polar lipid composition by thin-layer chromatography of lipid extracts. A genomic clone which complemented the mutations in these two lines, but not the previously described sulfolipid-deficient sqdA mutant, was identified. Sequence analysis of the relevant region of the...
