Structure–Function Aspects of PstS in Multi-Drug–Resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa
11 Feb 2008
Abstract excerpt
The increasing prevalence of multi-drug-resistant (MDR) strains of Pseudomonas aeruginosa among critically ill humans is of significant concern. In the current study, we show that MDR clinical isolates of P. aeruginosa representing three distinct genotypes that display high virulence against intestinal epithelial cells, form novel appendage-like structures on their cell surfaces. These appendages contain PstS, an...
