Light-induced carotenogenesis in Myxococcus xanthus: genetic analysis of the carR region.

Molecular microbiology - 1 Feb 1993

Hodgson D A

Abstract excerpt

Carotenogenesis is light-inducible in the non-photosynthetic, Gram-negative, bacterium Myxococcus xanthus. We report the characterization of the carR region which controls this phenomenon. Insertion of transposon Tn5 close to the carR region caused a dominant, carotenoid-constitutive mutation because of the presence of a constitutive, outward-reading promoter in the IS50L component of Tn5. In wild-type cells, a...
