PtrA regulates prodigiosin synthesis and biological functions in Serratia marcescens FZSF02

Serratia marcescens is a gram-negative bacterium that is able to produce many secondary metabolites, such as the prominent red pigment prodigiosin (PG). In this work, a ptrA-disrupted mutant strain with reduced PG production was selected from Tn5 transposon mutants. RT–qPCR results indicated that pt...
