Abstract excerpt
Clostridium difficile is currently the major cause of nosocomial intestinal diseases associated with antibiotic therapy in adults. In order to improve our knowledge of C. difficile-host interactions, we analyzed the genome-wide temporal expression of C. difficile 630 genes during the first 38 h of mouse colonization to identify genes whose expression is modulated in vivo, suggesting that they may play a role in...
