Point mutations in a conserved region (TonB box) of Escherichia coli outer membrane protein BtuB affect vitamin B12 transport.

abstract：:Systematic inactivation of pathways involved in DNA alkylation damage repair demonstrated that inactivation of the ada, ogt, tag, uvrA, and mfd genes is required to detect a Salmonella enterica virulence decrease. Furthermore, the fitness of S. enterica, defective in these genes, is lowered only when the bacterium is ...
