Abstract excerpt
The frz genes of Myxococcus xanthus constitute a signal-transduction pathway that processes chemotactic information in a manner analogous to that found in enteric bacteria. Ultimately, these genes regulate the frequency of individual cell reversal. We report here the identification of a novel component of this signal-transduction pathway, designated frzZ, which was discovered as an open reading frame located 5'...
