    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 ([gudB |search|''gudB1''])
  • sensitive to ß-lactam antibiotics such as cefuroxime and to fosfomycin (suppressed by activation of ''[protein|search|gudB]'') due to the downregulation of the [SW|SigW regulon] [Pubmed|22178969]
