2018-06-14
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> To cause disease, Clostridioides ( Clostridium ) difficile must resist killing by innate immune effectors in the intestine, including the host antimicrobial peptide, cathelicidin (LL-37). The mechanisms that enable C. difficile to adapt to the intestine in the presence of antimicrobial peptides are unknown. Expression analyses revealed an operon, CD630_16170-CD630_16190 ( clnRAB ), which i...
