Co-ordinate regulation of antibiotic and pigment production by the Serratia Rap protein : evidence for a novel family of regulatory proteins
The enteric bacterium Serratia marcescens is an opportunistic human pathogen. The strain studied here makes the red pigment prodigiosin (Pig) and the ß-lactam antibiotic (5R)-carbapen-2-em-3 carboxylic acid. Mutants were isolated which were affected for pigment production.
