Isolation of Rhodospirillum centenum mutants defective in phototactic colony motility by transposon mutagenesis.

Journal of bacteriology - 1 Mar 1998

Abstract excerpt

The purple photosynthetic bacterium Rhodospirillum centenum is capable of forming swarm colonies that rapidly migrate toward or away from light, depending on the wavelength of excitation. To identify components specific for photoperception, we conducted mini-Tn5-mediated mutagenesis and screened approximately 23,000 transposition events for mutants that failed to respond to either continuous illumination or to a...
