Protozoan predation enhances stress resistance and antibiotic tolerance in the opportunistic pathogen <i>Burkholderia cenocepacia</i> by triggering the SOS response
2023-08-24
Abstract excerpt
Bacterivorous protists are thought to serve as training grounds for bacterial pathogens by subjecting them to the same hostile conditions that they will encounter in the human host. Bacteria that survive intracellular digestion exhibit enhanced virulence and stress resistance after successful passage through protozoa but the underlying mechanisms remain to be clarified. Here we show that the opportunistic pathogen...
