The molecular mechanism for carbon catabolite repression of the chitin response in <i>Vibrio cholerae</i>
2022-09-30
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Vibrio cholerae is a facultative pathogen that primarily occupies marine environments. In this niche, V. cholerae commonly interacts with the chitinous shells of crustacean zooplankton. As a chitinolytic microbe, V. cholerae degrades insoluble chitin into soluble oligosaccharides. Chitin oligosaccharides serve as both a nutrient source and an environmental cue that induces a strong transcripti...
