Role of genetic redundancy in polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) polymerases in PHA biosynthesis in Rhodospirillum rubrum.

abstract：:The chiR gene of Serratia marcescens 2170, encoding a LysR-type transcriptional activator, was identified previously as an essential factor for expression of chitinases and a chitin-binding protein, CBP21. To identify other genes that are essential for chitinase production, transposon mutagenesis with mini-Tn5Km1 was ...
