Emerging <i>Clostridioides difficile</i> ribotypes have divergent metabolic phenotypes
2024-08-15
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Clostridioides difficile is a gram-positive spore-forming pathogen that commonly causes diarrheal infections in the developed world. Although C. difficile is a genetically diverse species, certain ribotypes are overrepresented in human infections. It is unknown if metabolic adaptations are essential for the emergence of these epidemic ribotypes. Here, we tested carbon substrate utilization by 8...
