The LysR-type regulator SftR is involved in soil survival and sulphate ester metabolism in Pseudomonas putida.

Sulphate esters make up a large proportion of the available sulphur in agricultural soils, and many pseudomonads can desulphurize a range of aryl- and alkylsulphate esters to provide sulphur for growth. After miniTn5 transposon mutagenesis of Pseudomonas putida S-313, we isolated 19 mutants that wer...
