Chitin Attenuates Expression of Listeria monocytogenes Virulence Genes in vitro
External signals are crucial for bacteria to sense their immediate environment and fine-tune gene expression accordingly. The foodborne pathogen Listeria monocytogenes senses a range of environmental cues in order to activate or deactivate the virulence-inducing transcriptional factor PrfA during tr...
