Assembly and dynamics of the outer membrane exopolysaccharide transporter PelBC of <i>Pseudomonas aeruginosa</i>
2024-09-25
Abstract excerpt
The infamous opportunistic pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa enhances its virulence and antibiotic resistance upon formation of durable biofilms. The biofilm stability is mediated by its matrix built of secreted exopolysaccharides, eDNA, and structural proteins. Exopolysaccharides of P. aeruginosa – Pel, Psl and alginate – have the highest biomedical relevance, but the mechanisms behind their synthesis and secreti...
