Lack of the Bacterial Phytochrome Protein Decreases Deinococcus radiodurans Resistance to Mitomycin C

Lack of the Bacterial Phytochrome Protein Decreases Deinococcus radiodurans Resistance to Mitomycin C

Deinococcus radiodurans known for its extraordinary resistance to ionizing radiation contains bacterial phytochrome (BphP), a member of the family of red/far-red light-sensing proteins. In this study, we constructed a bphP mutant strain (ΔbphP) to investigate the role of D. radiodurans BphP (DrBphP)...
