Evidence for Rho-dependent control of a virulence switch in Acinetobacter baumannii
ABSTRACTAcinetobacter baumannii strain AB5075 is able to interconvert at high frequency between virulent cells that form opaque colonies (VIR-O) and avirulent cells that form translucent colonies (AV-T). Cells switch from the VIR-O to the AV-T state by the combinatorial activation of at least three...
