Arginine impacts aggregation, biofilm formation, and antibiotic susceptibility in <i>Enterococcus faecalis</i>

2024-05-31

Abstract excerpt

Enterococcus faecalis is a commensal bacterium in the gastrointestinal tract (GIT) of humans and other organisms. E. faecalis also causes infections in root canals, wounds, the urinary tract, and on heart valves. E. faecalis metabolizes arginine through the arginine deiminase (ADI) pathway, which converts arginine to ornithine and releases ATP, ammonia, and CO 2 . E. faecalis arginine metabolism also affects v...
