Mutation of the Ser2 codon of the light-harvesting B870 alpha polypeptide of Rhodobacter capsulatus partially suppresses the pufX phenotype.

Journal of bacteriology - 1 Aug 1995

Lilburn T G, Prince R C, Beatty J T

Abstract excerpt

The exact function of the pufX gene product of Rhodobacter capsulatus is uncertain, but deletion of the pufX gene renders cells incapable of phototrophic growth on a minimal medium, and photosynthetic electron transfer is impaired in vitro. However, suppressor mutants that are able to grow phototropically are readily isolated. Two such suppressor mutants were characterized as to their phototrophic growth...
