Cohesion-defective mutants of Myxococcus xanthus.

Pamela J Bonner1, Lawrence J Shimkets.   

Abstract

Cohesion of Myxococcus xanthus cells involves interaction of a cell surface cohesin with a component of the extracellular matrix. In this work, two previously isolated cohesion-defective (fbd) mutants were characterized. The fbdA and fbdB genes do not encode the cohesins but are necessary for their production. Both mutants produce type IV pili, suggesting that PilA is not a major cohesin.
