Transcriptomic and Functional Analysis of NaCl-Induced Stress in Enterococcus faecalis
22 Apr 2014
Abstract excerpt
The robust physiology of Enterococcus faecalis facilitates tolerance to various stresses. We here report the transcriptional response of E. faecalis V583 to growth in the presence of 6.5% NaCl. Among the early responses observed was an immediate down-regulation of mscL, accompanied by an up-regulation of genes predicted to be involved in uptake of extracellular potassium and glycine betaine. The high NaCl...
