Plasmid-encoded H-NS controls extracellular matrix composition in a modern <i>Acinetobacter baumannii</i> urinary isolate

2021-05-20

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Acinetobacter baumannii is emerging as a multidrug-resistant (MDR) nosocomial pathogen of increasing threat to human health worldwide. The recent MDR urinary isolate UPAB1 carries the plasmid pAB5, a member of a family of large conjugative plasmids (LCP). LCP encode several antibiotic resistance genes and repress the type VI secretion system (T6SS) to enable their dissemination, employing two Te...
