Abstract
FlhD is a positive regulator of cadA. A mutant with a transposon-media ted lacZ fusion to cad4 exhibited a cell division phenotype similar to that of the flhD mutant and had FlhD-dependent beta-galactosidase act ivity. Under different growth conditions, the cell division rate corre lated with the level of expression of cadA.
