Ethylene response and phytohormone-mediated regulation of gene expression in Komagataeibacter xylinus ATCC 53582
Komagataeibacter xylinus ATCC 53582 is a fruit-associated, cellulose-producing bacterium that responds to and synthesizes phytohormones. This thesis elaborates on the ecophysiology of K. xylinus. Responses to indole-3-acetic acid (IAA), abscisic acid (ABA) and ethylene, produced in situ from …

The transcription factor, fixK, plays a central role in carbon source metabolism and cellulose synthesis in Komagataeibacter species
Komagataeibacter xylinus ATCC 53582 and K. hansenii ATCC 23769 are model bacterial cellulose producers. This thesis investigated both carbon source utilization and the role that a Crp/Fnr transcription factor, FixK, plays in bacterial cellulose biosynthesis. Extracellular proteins secreted by …
