Mutations in ribosomal protein uS5 alter translation fidelity and mutagenesis in Pseudomonas putida.

Abstract excerpt

Errors in protein synthesis can influence cellular fitness and, in some cases, affect genome stability. While this connection has been explored, most investigations have focused on Enterobacteriaceae such as Escherichia coli, leaving open the question of how translational fidelity shapes mutagenesis in other bacterial groups. Would a metabolically versatile, stress-tolerant soil bacterium behave differently? We...
