Abstract excerpt
The two closely related bacteria Bradyrhizobium and Rhodopseudomonas palustris show an unusual mechanism of regulation of photosystem formation by light thanks to a bacteriophytochrome that antirepresses the regulator PpsR. In these two bacteria, we found out, unexpectedly, that two ppsR genes are present. We show that the two Bradyrhizobium PpsR proteins exert antagonistic effects in the regulation of...
