The RyfA small RNA regulates oxidative and osmotic stress responses and virulence in uropathogenic Escherichia coli.
Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are a common bacterial infectious disease in humans, and strains of uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC) are the most frequent cause of UTIs. During infection, UPEC must cope with a variety of stressful conditions in the urinary tract. Here, we demonstrate that the s...
