The gene

Basic information

• Locus tag: BSU13850

Phenotypes of a mutant

• • sensitivity to iron, this can be suppressed by low levels of Mn(II) PubMed
  • reduced genetic competence, can be rescued by the addition of excess zinc PubMed
  • reduced expression of comK, control is exerted at the post-transcriptional level and can be rescued by the addition of excess zinc PubMed
