Abstract excerpt

The mucA gene of the muc operon, which is instrumental in the control of the biosynthesis of the exopolysaccharide alginate, is a hotspot of mutation in Pseudomonas aeruginosa, a micro-organism that chronically colonizes the airways of individuals with cystic fibrosis (CF). The mucA, mucB and muc...
