Trans-acting regulation of antibiotic TA genes in Myxococcus xanthus.

Abstract excerpt

Two regulatory mutations of Myxococcus xanthus, which cause an increase in the transcription of genes required for antibiotic TA synthesis, were mapped by transduction and their effect on transcription of four TA genes examined. The two regulatory mutations were closely linked and located within the 40-kb TA gene cluster on the M. xanthus chromosome. Recombinants were constructed which contained one of the...
