Abstract excerpt
Mutants of Streptomyces coelicolor blocked at the earliest visible stage of morphological differentiation are called bld mutants. These mutants fail to form aerial hyphae on rich medium and most are defective in antibiotic production. One striking feature of these mutants is that, with the exception of bldB, their morphological defect is carbon-source dependent. In our investigation of catabolite control in...
