The <i>lac</i> operon in uropathogenic <i>Escherichia coli</i> enhances intracellular growth by enabling host glycan utilization

2025-12-03

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> The lac operon in Escherichia coli has been used as a model of gene regulation throughout biology since its characterization in the early 1960s. Despite the myriad of biotechnology applications that arose from characterization of the lac system, the explanation for the importance of a functional lac operon in normal bladder colonization by uropathogenic E. coli remains unknown given that th...
