Functional Analysis of a Novel β-(1,3)-Glucanase from Corallococcus sp. Strain EGB Containing a Fascin-Like Module.

abstract：:Pseudomonas fluorescens Pf-5 is a soil bacterium that suppresses plant pathogens due in part to its production of the antibiotic pyoluteorin. Previous characterization of Pf-5 revealed three global regulators, including the stationary-phase sigma factor sigma(S) and the two-component regulators GacA and GacS, that inf...
