Cloning of genes controlling alginate biosynthesis from a mucoid cystic fibrosis isolate of Pseudomonas aeruginosa.

Mucoid strains of Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolated from the sputum of cystic fibrosis patients produce copious quantities of an exopolysaccharide known as alginic acid. Since clinical isolates of the mucoid variants are unstable with respect to alginate synthesis and revert spontaneously to the more...
