<i>Escherichia coli</i> Cryptic Prophages Sense Nutrients to Control Persister Cell Resuscitation
2021-04-11
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> We determined previously that some cryptic prophages are not genomic junk but instead enable cells to combat myriad stresses as part of an active stress response. However, how these phage fossils affect the extreme stress response of dormancy; i.e., how cryptic prophages affect persister cell formation and resuscitation, has not been fully explored. Persister cells form as a result of stresses s...
