Evidence that asgB encodes a DNA-binding protein essential for growth and development of Myxococcus xanthus.

Journal of bacteriology - 1 Apr 1994

Plamann L, Davis J M, Cantwell B, Mayor J

Abstract excerpt

The asg mutants of Myxococcus xanthus are defective in production of extracellular A-signal, which serves as a cell density signal for fruiting-body development. The DNA sequence of asgB, one of the three asg genes, was determined. The deduced amino acid sequence of AsgB contains a DNA-binding helix-turn-helix motif near the C terminus. This putative helix-turn-helix is highly similar to the helix-turn-helix in...
