Abstract excerpt
In order to study the regulation of N-acyl-homoserine lactones synthesis (AHLs, the signal molecules of Quorum Sensing regulation) in Burkholderia cenocepacia strain 370 we obtained mutants with increased AHL production. One of the mutants, named BC-B6, was obtained by TnMod-RKm(r) plasposon mutagenesis. The plasposon insertion was located within the clpX gene encoding the ATPase subunit ClpX of the ClpXP...
