Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Clostridioides difficile is a Gram-positive, spore-forming, and toxin-producing anaerobe that can cause nosocomial antibiotic-associated intestinal disease. In C. difficile , the expression of flagellar genes is coupled to toxin gene regulation and bacterial colonization and virulence. The flagellin FliC is responsible for pleiotropic gene regulation during in vivo infection. However, how fli...
