Transcriptomic characterization of a virulence-deficient phosphatidylcholine-negative Agrobacterium tumefaciens mutant

ABSTRACT: To learn more about the global effects of phosphatidylcholine (PC)-deficiency in A. tumefaciens, we performed transcriptomic studies comparing the wild type and a PC-deficient DpmtA Dpcs mutant. We expanded the number of affected virulence genes and showed that the loss of PC was correlated with altered expression of multiple genes encoding membrane or membrane-associated proteins and proteins which fulfil their function at the membrane. The PC-deficient mutant analyzed in this study is further described in Sonja Klüsener, Stephanie Hacker, Yun-Long Tsai, Julia E. Bandow, Ronald Gust, Erh-Min Lai and Franz Narberhaus. 2010.
