Cloning and analysis of a 35.3-kilobase DNA region involved in exopolysaccharide production by Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris
Abstract
Cosmid clones able to restore exopolysaccharide production in possibly insertion sequence element-induced surface mutants of Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris were isolated. By fragment-specific Tn5-lac mutagenesis of one of the cosmids, pXCB1002, a new DNA region which is involved in exopolysaccharide biosynthesis and which is organized into at least 12 complementation groups was identified.
