Differential expression of Clostridium difficile and phage genes during a one-step growth curve
2020-01-01
Abstract excerpt
Clostridium difficile is one of the most dangerous pathogens that causes significant human morbidity and mortality in hospital settings. Bacteriophages are viruses of bacteria that are ubiquitous in nature. Most strains of C. difficile carry one or more prophages that can support the virulence of the bacteria. However, during the lytic cycle, temperate phages can affect virulence genes expression. In order to inve...
