Molecular determinants for differential activation of the bile acid receptor from the pathogen Vibrio parahaemolyticus
7 Mar 2023
Abstract excerpt
Bile acids are important for digestion of food and antimicrobial activity. Pathogenic Vibrio parahaemolyticus senses bile acids and induce pathogenesis. The bile acid taurodeoxycholate (TDC) was shown to activate the master regulator, VtrB, of this system, whereas other bile acids such as chenodeoxycholate (CDC) do not. Previously, VtrA-VtrC was discovered to be the co-component signal transduction system that...
