Abstract excerpt
A mutant that cannot utilize pectin substances of plant cell walls was obtained via insertion of mini-mini-Tn5xylE transposon into the chromosome of phytopathogenic bacteria Erwinia carotovora subsp. atroseptica. The inability of mutant cells to utilize these substrates was caused by a failure to accomplish the catabolism of unsaturated digalacturonic acid (UDA). Study of enzymatic activities has established that...
