A new locus in Cytophaga hutchinsonii involved in colony spreading on agar surfaces and individual cell gliding.

FEMS microbiology letters - 1 Jul 2015

Abstract excerpt

Cytophaga hutchinsonii glides rapidly over surfaces by an unknown mechanism without flagella and type IV pili and it can degrade crystalline cellulose efficiently by a novel mechanism. Tn4351 transposon mutagenesis was used to identify a new gene, CHU_1798, essential for colony spreading on agar surfaces. Further study showed that disruption of CHU_1798 caused non-spreading colonies on both soft and hard agar...
