Abstract excerpt
Phosphate regulation is complex in the developmental prokaryote Myxococcus xanthus, and requires at least four two-component systems (TCSs). Here, the identification and characterization of a member of one TCS, designated PhoP4, is reported. phoP4 insertion and in-frame deletion strains caused spore viability to be decreased by nearly two orders of magnitude, and reduced all three development-specific phosphatase...
