Tandem receiver domain response regulator DrdR modulates swarming by controlling PilB/PilT activity in Xanthomonas campestris

Abstract Like many other bacterial organisms, Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris (Xcc) employs two motility appendages, a single polar flagellum and type IV pili, for sensing environmental cues and traversing liquids and solid surfaces. However, compared to the flagellum, the molecular mechanisms underlying the func...
