A connection between <i>Vibrio cholerae</i> motility and inter-animal transmission
2025-02-13
Abstract excerpt
Outbreaks of cholera are caused by the highly transmissive pathogen Vibrio cholerae . Here, a transposon screen revealed that inactivation of the V. cholerae motility-linked gene motV increases infant mouse intestinal colonization. Compared to wild-type V. cholerae , a Δ motV mutant, which exhibits heightened motility in the form of constitutive straight swimming, localizes to the crypts earlier in infection...
