RstA is a Major Regulator of <i>Clostridioides difficile</i> Toxin Production and Motility

2018-09-13

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Clostridioides difficile infection (CDI) is a toxin-mediated disease. Several factors have been identified that influence the production of the two major C. difficile toxins, TcdA and TcdB, but prior published evidence suggested that additional unknown factors were involved in toxin regulation. Previously, we identified a C. difficile regulator, RstA, that promotes sporulation and represses mo...
