Purification and some properties of the citrate synthase from a marine Pseudomonas.

abstract：:Pili are essential adhesive determinants for many bacterial pathogens. A suppressor mutation screen that takes advantage of a pilus-mediated self-aggregative "hockey-puck" colony phenotype was designed to identify novel regulators of type I pili in Serratia marcescens. Mutations that decreased pilus biosynthesis mappe...
