Abstract excerpt
The quorum sensing (QS) system mediated by the abaI gene in Acinetobacter baumannii is crucial for various physiological and pathogenic processes. In this study, we constructed a stable markerless abaI knockout mutant (ΔabaI) strain using a pEXKm5-based allele replacement method to investigate the impact of abaI on A. baumannii. Proteomic analysis revealed significant alterations in protein expression between the...
