additional information JSG435 carries a mutant pmrA locus allele (pmrA505), JSG435 is mutagenized with the transposon Tn10d. Chromosomal mapping of the transposon insertions of the two polymyxin B sensitive strains shows them to be located at 50-52 centisomes (JSG485) and 43-45 centisomes (JSG486), thus eliminating the possibility that mutations in these regulatory loci are responsible for the observed phenotypic change Salmonella enterica

General Information

General Information Comment Organism
malfunction JSG435 carries a mutant pmrA locus allele (pmrA505) that results in high level polymyxin resistance, probably due to constitutive expression of PmrA/PmrB-activated genes Salmonella enterica
metabolism two unlinked PmrA/PmrB-regulated loci, designated pmrE and pmrF, are identified as necessary for resistance of the organism to polymyxin B and for the addition of aminoarabinose to lipid A. Genes immediately flanking this putative operon are also regulated by PmrA/PmrB and/or have been associated with Salmonella typhimurium polymyxin resistance Salmonella enterica
