Catabolism of mucus components influences motility of Vibrio cholerae in the presence of environmental reservoirs.

Catabolism of mucus components influences motility of Vibrio cholerae in the presence of environmental reservoirs.

Vibrio cholerae O1, the etiological agent of cholera, is a natural inhabitant of aquatic ecosystems. Motility is a critical element for the colonization of both the human host and its environmental reservoirs.
