abstract：:The hexC locus of Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1 was localized to a 247-bp segment of chromosomal DNA on the multicopy broad-host-range vector pRO1614. The presence of this plasmid (pPZ196) in strain PAO1 produced the so-called "hexC effect," a two- to ninefold increase in the activities of four carbohydrate catabolism e...
