The PecT Repressor Coregulates Synthesis of Exopolysaccharides and Virulence Factors in Erwinia chrysanthemi

Erwinia chrysanthemi 3937 synthesizes an exopolysaccharide (EPS) composed of rhamnose, galactose, and galacturonic acid. Fourteen transcriptional fusions in genes required for EPS synthesis, named eps, were obtained by Tn5-B21 mutagenesis. Eleven of them are clustered on the chromosome and are repre...
