Genetic analysis of plasmid determinants for microcin J25 production and immunity.

abstract：:Escherichia coli strain TP985, which has an insertional mutation in the gene for the periplasmic murein tripeptide binding protein MppA, was previously reported to overproduce MarA and exhibit a multiple-antibiotic resistance (Mar) phenotype (H. Li and J. T. Park, J. Bacteriol. 181:4842-4847, 1999). We found that TP98...
