Inactivation of lsr2 results in a hypermotile phenotype in Mycobacterium smegmatis.

Journal of bacteriology - 1 Jun 2008

Abstract excerpt

Mycobacterial species are characterized by the presence of lipid-rich, hydrophobic cell envelopes. These cell envelopes contribute to properties such as roughness of colonies, aggregation of cells in liquid culture without detergent, and biofilm formation. We describe here a mutant strain of Mycobacterium smegmatis, called DL1215, which demonstrates marked deviations from the above-mentioned phenotypes. DL1215...
