Abstract excerpt
Histone-like nucleoid-structuring (H-NS) proteins, which are conserved in Gram-negative bacteria, bind DNA and act as the global transcriptional repressors. In this study, we identified and characterized the xrvC gene encoding a H-NS protein in Xathomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (Xoo) Philippines strain PXO99(A) Compared with the wild type, the xrvC-deficient mutant of PXO99(A) (named PXO99ΔxrvC) showed a reduced...
