Phenotypes of a mutant

Poor growth on complex media such as SP (sporulation medium). No growth in minimal media with arginine as the only carbon source. Rapid accumulation of suppressor mutants ([gene|C36C8C9EEDCAD392D9BEC9728A1E0CBFF2F4E790|''gudB1'']]])

sensitive to -lactam antibiotics such as cefuroxime and to fosfomycin (suppressed by activation of ''[gene|C36C8C9EEDCAD392D9BEC9728A1E0CBFF2F4E790|gudB]'') due to the downregulation of the [SW|SigW regulon] [Pubmed|22178969]
