Figure 6

The FabG-encoding gene Xcc1018 is involved in DSF, BDSF, CDSF and IDSF biosynthesis in Xcc.

(a) The proposed FAS elongation cycle in Xcc strain ATCC33913. The enzymes composing the FAS elongation cycle (FabA, FabB, FabF, FabG, FabZ) were proposed based on BLASTP analysis of their counterparts in E. coli. (b) The effect of overexpression of Xcc1018 via the expression vector pBBR-1-MCS2 on DSF-family biosynthesis 24 h after inoculation. The data are the means ± one standard deviation of three independent assays. Different letters indicate significant differences between treatments (LSD at P = 0.05).
