Abstract excerpt
The fprA gene is immediately adjacent to the csgA gene (formerly known as spoC) of Myxococcus xanthus. Whereas the csgA gene has an essential role in cell interactions during the developmental cycle, the function of the fprA gene is unknown. Gene disruption was used to determine what affect a null mutation in this gene has on the phenotype of the cell. A csgA-fprA deletion and an fprA frameshift mutation were...
