mpsAB(C) complements an E. coli carbonic anhydrase mutant and vice versa. a E. coli carbonic anhydrase mutant (EDCM636) can be complemented with mpsAB and mpsABC using plasmid pRB473 under the control of its native promoter in atmospheric (left) and 5% CO2 (right). Clockwise from the top; EDCM636, EDCM636 pRB473 (empty plasmid), EDCM636 pRB473 mpsA, EDCM636 pRB473 mpsB, EDCM636 pRB473 mpsAB, and EDCM636 pRB473 mpsABC. bmpsABC can be complemented with carbonic anhydrase, can from E. coli MG1655 using pTX30, a xylose-inducible promoter plasmid. Clockwise from the top; wild-type HG001, ∆mpsABC, ∆mpsABC pTX30 (empty plasmid), and ∆mpsABC pTX30 can. Plates were supplemented with xylose (+) or without xylose (−)
