Indole Sensing Regulator (IsrR) Promotes Virulence Gene Expression in Enteric Pathogens
2 Aug 2022
Abstract excerpt
Enteric pathogens sense the complex intestinal chemistry to find a suitable colonization niche. The microbiota plays an important part in shaping this chemistry. Here we show that the abundant microbiota-derived exogenous signal indole impacts host-pathogen interactions by allowing enteric pathogens to discriminate between the luminal environment, where expression of virulence genes is an unnecessary energy...
