Project description:Hallmarks of the myxobacteria include the formation of spore-filled fruiting bodies in response to starvation and synthesis of secondary metabolites. Myxococcus stipitatus forms morphologically highly distinct fruiting bodies and produces secondary metabolites with antibiotic or cytotoxic activities. Here, we present the 10.35-Mb genome sequence of M. stipitatus strain DSM 14675.
Project description:To identify CdbA binding sites on Myxococcus xanthus genome in vivo we performed ChIP-seq, using a polyclonal anti-FLAG antibody and a strain endogenously expressing CdbA_3xFLAG. A WT DK1622 strain was used a negative control and a strain endogenously expressing ParB_3xFLAG was used as positive control.
