Abstract excerpt
We report the identification of a previously unknown Listeria monocytogenes gene, flaR, which modulates DNA topology. Through the analysis of a Tn917 non-motile mutant, LOSC1, in which production of flagellin was abolished, we have identified a bacterial component involved in gene regulation. The transposon had inserted in flaR, an open reading frame of 531 bp, followed by a second open reading frame of 1252 bp...
