Inhibitors of two-component signal transduction systems: inhibition of alginate gene activation in Pseudomonas aeruginosa.
1 Feb 1993
Abstract excerpt
Pseudomonas aeruginosa strains infecting cystic fibrosis patients often produce copious amounts of the exopolysaccharide alginate. Expression of alginate genes in P. aeruginosa is regulated by several proteins including members of the two-component bacterial signal transduction systems. Two of these regulatory proteins are AlgR1, the DNA-binding response regulator that transcriptionally activates alginate gene...
