Abstract excerpt
Production of EPS I, an unusual exopolysaccharide virulence factor of the phytopathogen Pseudomonas solanacearum, requires the 18 kb eps gene cluster. DNA sequence analysis of the first seven genes of eps (epsAPBCDEF), subcellular localization of their products in maxicells, and phoA fusion analysis showed that: (i) epsA, epsB, epsE, and epsF encode exported or membrane-associated proteins probably involved in...
