Altered motility in response to iron-limitation is regulated by <i>lpdA</i> in uropathogenic <i>E. coli</i> CFT073
2023-09-28
Abstract excerpt
More than half of all women will experience a urinary tract infection (UTI) in their lifetime with most cases caused by uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC). Bacterial motility enhances UPEC pathogenicity, resulting in more severe disease outcomes including kidney infection. Surprisingly, the connection between motility and iron limitation is mostly unexplored, despite the lack of free iron available in the host...
