General stress transcription factor sigmaB and its role in acid tolerance and virulence of Listeria monocytogenes.

Journal of bacteriology - 1 Jul 1998

Wiedmann M, Arvik T J, Hurley R J, Boor K J

Abstract excerpt

The gene encoding the general stress transcription factor sigmaB in the gram-positive bacterium Listeria monocytogenes was isolated with degenerate PCR primers followed by inverse PCR amplification. Evidence for gene identification includes the following: (i) phylogenetic analyses of reported ami...
