Abstract excerpt
The phytostimulatory alphaproteobacterium Azospirillum lipoferum 4B exhibits the plant-beneficial gene acdS, which enables deamination of the ethylene precursor 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid (ACC). Here, we show that acdS is in the vicinity of acdR, a homolog to leucine-responsive regulator lrp, in A. lipoferum 4B and most other acdS+ Proteobacteria. Unlike in Beta- and Gammaproteobacteria, acdS (and...
