Isolation and phenotypic characterization of Myxococcus xanthus mutants which are defective in sensing negative stimuli.

Journal of bacteriology - 1 Feb 1994

Shi W, Köhler T, Zusman D R

Abstract excerpt

Myxococcus xanthus is a gram-negative gliding bacterium that exhibits a complex life cycle. Exposure of M. xanthus to chemicals like dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) at nondeleterious concentrations or the depletion of nutrients caused several negative responses by the cells. DMSO (> 0.1 M) or nutrient depletion triggered a repellent response: cell swarming was inhibited and FrzCD (a methyl-accepting chemotaxis protein)...
