Growth medium-dependent regulation of Myxococcus xanthus fatty acid content is controlled by the esg locus.

Journal of bacteriology - 1 Oct 1998

Bartholomeusz G, Zhu Y, Downard J

Abstract excerpt

We compared the cellular fatty acid profiles of Myxococcus xanthus cells grown in either a Casitone-based complex medium or a chemically defined medium. The cells grown in the complex medium had a much higher content of the abundant branched-chain fatty acid iso-15:0 and several other branched-chain species. The higher branched-chain fatty acid content of the cells grown in the complex medium was dependent on the...
