Abstract excerpt

We identified novel phenotypes of a pgsA3 mutant lacking the potential to synthesize phosphatidylglycerophosphate, a precursor of phosphatidylglycerol. The first phenotype is limited cell growth at a high temperature, under the condition of low salt. The phenotype was co-transduced with a phenoty...
