The tgl gene: social motility and stimulation in Myxococcus xanthus.

Journal of bacteriology - 1 Jul 1997

Rodriguez-Soto J P, Kaiser D

Abstract excerpt

Mutations in the tgl locus inactivate social gliding motility in Myxococcus xanthus and block production of pili. The tgl locus is distinctive among the genes for social motility because social gliding and pili can be restored transiently to tgl mutant cells by mixing them with tgl+ cells, a process known as stimulation. The tgl locus was cloned with a linked insertion of transposon Tn5 by using the kanamycin...
