Abstract excerpt
A regulatory mutation (alg52) in a Pseudomonas aeruginosa alginate-negative mutant (strain 8882) is complemented efficiently by the gene algR2 and somewhat inefficiently by a second gene termed algR3. algR3 and algR2 are located on a 4.4-kilobase-pair HindIII-BamHI fragment, which has been completely sequenced. algR2 has previously been characterized. Introduction of kanamycin-resistance cassettes and...
