SlyB is a small lipoprotein of 158 amino acids which is conserved in different Gram-negative bacteria. In contrast to other bacteria, where slyB is monocistronic, in Burkholderia multivorans and in B. cenocepacia, slyB is the last gene of an operon comprising three open reading frames encoding a putative thiol peroxidase, a putative sugar kinase and SlyB. B. multivorans slyB mutants produced elongated cells and...
