Ribosomal mutations enable a switch between high fitness and high stress resistance in Listeria monocytogenes

Multiple stress resistant variants of Listeria monocytogenes with mutations in rpsU encoding ribosomal protein RpsU have previously been isolated after a single exposure to acid stress. These variants, including L. monocytogenes LO28 variant V14 with a complete deletion of the rpsU gene, showed upre...
