Abstract excerpt
Growth of Pseudomonas aeruginosa on diamines cadaverine, putrescine, and diaminopropane requires the γ-glutamylation pathway to convert these diamines into δ-aminovalerate (AMV), γ-aminobutyrate (GABA), and β-alanine. From DNA microarrays experiments the agtABCD operon (PA0603-0606) encoding components for an ABC transporter system was found inducible by exogenous AMV, GABA, and β-alanine, but not by diamines....
