Polyamines are required for normal growth in Sinorhizobium meliloti.

Microbiology (Reading, England) - 1 Apr 2018

Becerra-Rivera Victor A, Bergström Ed, Thomas-Oates Jane, Dunn Michael F

Abstract excerpt

Polyamines (PAs) are ubiquitous polycations derived from basic l-amino acids whose physiological roles are still being defined. Their biosynthesis and functions in nitrogen-fixing rhizobia such as Sinorhizobium meliloti have not been extensively investigated. Thin layer chromatographic and mass spectrometric analyses showed that S. meliloti Rm8530 produces the PAs, putrescine (Put), spermidine (Spd) and...
