The global regulator GacS of a biocontrol bacterium Pseudomonas chlororaphis O6 regulates transcription from the rpoS gene encoding a stationary-phase sigma factor and affects survival in oxidative stress.

Abstract excerpt

The global regulator, GacS (global activator for antibiotics and cyanide sensor kinase), of the rhizosphere bacterium Pseudomonas chlororaphis O6 (Pc O6) was required for increased resistance to hydrogen peroxide as cultures mature. Specific bands of peroxidase and catalase activity were absent in the stationary-phase cells of the Pc O6 gacS mutant, whereas a manganese superoxide dismutase (MnSOD) isozyme was...
