Genes required for both gliding motility and development in Myxococcus xanthus.

Molecular microbiology - 1 Nov 1994

MacNeil S D, Mouzeyan A, Hartzell P L

Abstract excerpt

Myxococcus xanthus cells can glide both as individual cells, dependent on Adventurous motility (A motility), and as groups of cells, dependent upon Social motility (S motility). Tn5-lac mutagenesis was used to generate 16 new A- and nine new S- mutations. In contrast with previous results, we find that subsets of A- mutants are defective in fruiting body morphogenesis and/or myxospore differentiation. All S-...
