Disease relevance of fixN1

  • This is supported experimentally by showing that Fnr can substitute for FixK in activating the fixN gene in E. coli [1].
  • A 1.9 kb DNA region of Rhizobium leguminosarum biovar viciae strain VF39 capable of promoting microaerobic and symbiotic induction of the Rhizobium meliloti fixN gene was identified by heterologous complementation [2].
