Abstract excerpt
Morphological differentiation in the filamentous bacterium Streptomyces coelicolor is believed to involve a mechanism of extracellular signalling that culminates with the formation of an aerial mycelium. We have identified a gene cluster designated bldK in which insertional and deletion mutations...
