FimX, a multidomain protein connecting environmental signals to twitching motility in Pseudomonas aeruginosa.

Journal of bacteriology - 1 Dec 2003

Huang Bixing, Whitchurch Cynthia B, Mattick John S

Abstract excerpt

Twitching motility is a form of surface translocation mediated by the extension, tethering, and retraction of type IV pili. Three independent Tn5-B21 mutations of Pseudomonas aeruginosa with reduced twitching motility were identified in a new locus which encodes a predicted protein of unknown function annotated PA4959 in the P. aeruginosa genome sequence. Complementation of these mutants with the wild-type PA4959...
