Abstract excerpt

phoU mutants of bacteria are potentially useful for the removal of inorganic phosphate (Pi) from sewage because they can accumulate a large amounts of polyphosphate (polyP). However, the growth of phoU mutants is severely defective and is easily outgrown by revertant(s) that have lost the ability to accumulate polyP during growth in a nutrient-rich medium. We found that a pseudo-revertant, designated LAP[+], that...
