Abstract excerpt
The S-layer protein SwmA is required for nonflagellar swimming in marine Synechococcus. An analysis of mutations in seven genes at two loci in the Synechococcus sp. strain WH8102 genome indicates that a multicomponent transporter and glycosyltransferases are required for the production and proper localization of SwmA.
