AmpG is an inner membrane permease which transports products of murein sacculus degradation from the periplasm into the cytosol in Gram-negative bacteria. This process is linked to induction of the chromosomal ampC beta-lactamase gene in some members of the Enterobacteriaceae and in Pseudomonas aeruginosa. In this study, the ampG homologue of Stenotrophomonas maltophilia KJ was analyzed. The ampG homologue and its upstream ampN gene form an operon and are cotranscribed under the control of the p ...[more]
