X. citri is a pathogen of great interest because it is responsible for the development of citrus canker in plants. Much effort has been performed to characterize the mechanisms that affect the growth, infection and pathogenesis, but little is known about the metabolism of this bacterium in relation to the uptake of ions, and in particular the metabolism of sulfur. In recent studies perfor…
Recent studies performed by our group involving proteins from ABC transporter systems of the Xanthomonas axonopodis pv. citri, evidenced the presence of the cys regulon for Sulfur capture and assimilation, according to the Escherichia coli previous characterization. Despite of the great importance of X. axonopodis for the Brazilian economy, since it is the causative agent of citrus canker…
In recent studies performed by our group we identified and functionally characterized four ATP-binding cassette transporters involved in sulfur assimilation, three for alkane (SsuABC1, SsuABC2 and NrtTUWA), which is odd compared to other microorganisms, and one for sulfate, (SbpCysUWA). The sulfate uptake system has been the target of the doctoral project from Cristiane Pereira (FAPESP Pr…
