An ABC transporter plays a developmental aggregation role in Myxococcus xanthus.

Journal of bacteriology - 1 Nov 1998

Abstract excerpt

Myxococcus xanthus is a gram-negative bacterium which has a complex life cycle. Autochemotaxis, a process whereby cells release a self-generated signaling molecule, may be the principal mechanism facilitating directed motility in both the vegetative swarming and developmental aggregation stages of this life cycle. The process requires the Frz signal transduction system, including FrzZ, a protein which is composed...
