Abstract excerpt

Mechanosensitive channels are ubiquitous in bacteria and provide an essential mechanism to survive sudden exposure to a hypo-osmotic environment by the sensing and release of increased turgor pressure. No mechanosensitive channels have thus far been identified and characterized for the human-specific bacterial pathogen Neisseria gonorrhoeae In this study, we identified and characterized the N. gonorrhoeae...
