Isogenic L1 and L2 gene knockout mutants of Stenotrophomonas maltophilia KJ (KJ{Delta}L1 and KJ{Delta}L2, respectively) were constructed by xylE gene replacement. Induction kinetics of the L1 and L2 genes were evaluated by testing catechol 2,3-dioxygenase activity in the mutants. The results suggested that the induction of the L1 and L2 genes was differentially regulated.
