Isolation and characterization of ilvA, ilvBN, and ilvD mutants of Caulobacter crescentus.

Journal of bacteriology - 1 Feb 1991

Tarleton J C, Ely B

Abstract excerpt

Caulobacter crescentus strains requiring isoleucine and valine (ilv) for growth were shown by transduction and pulsed-field gel electrophoresis to contain mutations at one of two unlinked loci, ilvB and ilvD. Other C. crescentus strains containing mutations at a third locus, ilvA, required either isoleucine or methionine for growth. Biochemical assays for threonine deaminase, acetohydroxyacid synthase, and...
