Abstract

The production of the blue pigment indigoidine has been achieved in the entomopathogenic bacterium Photorhabdus luminescens by a promoter exchange and in Escherichia coli following heterologous expression of the biosynthesis gene indC. Moreover, genes involved in the regulation of this previously "silent" biosynthesis gene cluster have been identified in P. luminescens. (C) 2011 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
