N-Deacetylation of Sinorhizobium meliloti Nod Factors Increases Their Stability in the Medicago sativa Rhizosphere and Decreases Their Biological Activity
Nod factors excreted by rhizobia are signal molecules that consist of a chitin oligomer backbone linked with a fatty acid at the nonreducing end. Modifications of the Nod factor structures influence their stability in the rhizosphere and their biological activity. To test the function of N-acetyl gr...
