DNA uptake and twitching motility are controlled by the small RNA Arp through repression of pilin translation in <i>Acinetobacter baumannii</i>
2025-07-19
Abstract excerpt
Acinetobacter baumannii is a major opportunistic pathogen capable of natural transformation, a process driven by type IV pili (T4P) that facilitates horizontal gene transfer and accelerates the spread of antimicrobial resistance. While the transcriptional regulation of T4P is increasingly understood, post-transcriptional mechanisms controlling pilus assembly remain unexplored. Here, we identify and characterise a...
