Abstract excerpt
The Cpx envelope stress response facilitates adaptation to envelope stresses that lead to the misfolding of periplasmic proteins. Cpx-mediated adaptation involves elevated expression of periplasmic proteases and chaperones. Previously, we demonstrated that induction of the Cpx envelope stress response in enteropathogenic Escherichia coli (EPEC) also results in inhibition of type III secretion (T3S) and that this...
