Genome-wide mutagenesis identifies factors involved in <i>Enterococcus faecalis</i> vaginal adherence and persistence

2020-04-30

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Enterococcus faecalis is a Gram-positive commensal bacterium native to the gastrointestinal tract and an opportunistic pathogen of increasing clinical concern. E. faecalis also colonizes the female reproductive tract and reports suggest vaginal colonization increases following antibiotic treatment or in patients with aerobic vaginitis. Currently, little is known about specific factors that prom...
