Mutations Affecting HVO_1357 or HVO_2248 Cause Hypermotility in <i>Haloferax volcanii</i>, Suggesting Roles in Motility Regulation

Motility regulation plays a key role in prokaryotic responses to environmental stimuli. Here, we used a motility screen and selection to isolate hypermotile <i>Haloferax volcanii</i> mutants from a transposon insertion library. Whole genome sequencing revealed that hypermotile mutants we...
