Abstract
Cultivation of an ice nucleation-active strain of Xanthomonas campestr is in the presence (1 ppm) of 4-hydroxy-3-nitrophenylacetic acid resul ted in enhancement of its ice-nucleation activity. Both the ice-nuclea tion-active protein, InaX, and its mRNA were effectively expressed in the bacterial cells cultured in the presence of this compound. This in dicates that this compound stimulated the biosynthesis of the ice-nucl eation-active protein.
