    H Loferer
    Microbiology and Tumorbiology Center, Karolinska Institute, Stockholm, Sweden
    Mol Microbiol 26:11-23. 1997
    ..Moreover, curli production and steady-state levels of CsgA and CsgB can be increased above wild-type levels by overexpression of CsgG, meaning that the quantity of assembled curli fibres can be controlled by this lipoprotein...
  2. ncbi Expression, purification and functional properties of a soluble form of Bradyrhizobium japonicum TlpA, a thioredoxin-like protein
    H Loferer
    Mikrobiologisches Institut, Eidgenossische Technische Hochschule, Zurich, Switzerland
    Eur J Biochem 223:339-44. 1994
    ..Evidence is presented that two non-active-site cysteine residues form an intramolecular disulfide bond, a feature that is not normally found in other prokaryotic thioredoxins...

    EMBO J 20:5908-18. 2001
    ..Temperature-sensitive mutants of this gene were isolated mapping to the catalytic site and other domains that exhibited constitutively elevated levels of both heat shock regulons...

    S Rossbach
    Mikrobiologisches Institut, Eidgenossische Technische Hochschule, Zurich, Switzerland
    FEMS Microbiol Lett 67:145-52. 1991
    ..A B. japonicum cycB insertion mutant was constructed which had no observable phenotypic defects in denitrification and symbiotic nitrogen fixation. Thus, the function of c552 remains unknown...

    M Bott
    Mikrobiologisches Institut, Eidgenossische Technische Hochschule, Zurich, Switzerland
    J Bacteriol 177:2214-7. 1995
    ..However, cytochrome c550, in contrast to cytochromes c552 and c555, was shown to be essential for anaerobic growth of B. japonicum, using nitrate as the terminal electron acceptor...
