This gene is a member of the following regulons
The gene
Basic information
- Locus tag: BSU40370
Phenotypes of a mutant
- the mutant divides over unsegregated chromosomes more frequently than wild-type cells, and this phenotype is exacerbated when DNA replication is inhibited PubMed
- increased sensitivity to a narrow spectrum of cephalosporin antibiotics PubMed
Database entries
