Bacterial chromatin remodeling associated with transcription-induced domains at pathogenicity Islands
2025-03-11
Abstract excerpt
The nucleoid-associated protein H-NS is a bacterial xenogeneic silencer responsible for preventing costly expression of genes acquired through horizontal gene transfer. H-NS silences several Salmonella Pathogenicity Islands (SPIs) essential for host infection. The stochastic expression of SPI-1 is required for invasion of host epithelial cells but complicates investigation of factors involved in SPI-1 chromatin s...
