Isolation and characterization of Escherichia coli mutants exhibiting altered response to thymol.

Microbial drug resistance (Larchmont, N.Y.) - 1 Jan 2007

Shapira Roni, Mimran Efrat

Abstract excerpt

The antimicrobial mode of action of the plant essential oil thymol was studied with Escherichia coli. Random transposon-insertion mutants were screened for altered response to thymol. Of four mutants showing more sensitivity, three were found in rfaQ, whose product is involved in lipopolysaccharide biosynthesis, and the fourth in the quorum-sensing gene qseC. Mutants showing more resistance had mutations in genes...
