Variable Persister Gene Interactions with (p)ppGpp for Persister Formation in Escherichia coli

Variable Persister Gene Interactions with (p)ppGpp for Persister Formation in Escherichia coli

Persisters comprise a group of phenotypically heterogeneous metabolically quiescent bacteria with multidrug tolerance and contribute to the recalcitrance of chronic infections. Although recent work has shown that toxin-antitoxin (TA) system HipAB depends on stringent response effector (p)ppGppin per...
