The nucleoid occlusion protein SlmA is a direct transcriptional activator of chitobiose utilization in <i>Vibrio cholerae</i>

2017-05-24

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Chitin utilization by the cholera pathogen Vibrio cholerae is required for its persistence and evolution via horizontal gene transfer in the marine environment. Genes involved in the uptake and catabolism of the chitin disaccharide chitobiose are encoded by the chb operon. The orphan sensor kinase ChiS is critical for regulation of this locus, however, the mechanisms downstream of ChiS activat...
