The Flagellar Transcriptional Regulator FtcR Controls <i>Brucella melitensis</i> 16M Biofilm Formation via a <i>betI</i>-Mediated Pathway in Response to Hyperosmotic Stress

The Flagellar Transcriptional Regulator FtcR Controls <i>Brucella melitensis</i> 16M Biofilm Formation via a <i>betI</i>-Mediated Pathway in Response to Hyperosmotic Stress

The expression of flagellar proteins in <i>Brucella</i> species likely evolved through genetic transference from other microorganisms, and contributed to virulence, adaptability, and biofilm formation. Despite significant progress in defining the molecular mechanisms behind flagellar gen...
