Progress in structural and functional study of the bacterial phenylacetic acid catabolic pathway, its role in pathogenicity and antibiotic resistance
Phenylacetic acid (PAA) is a central intermediate metabolite involved in bacterial degradation of aromatic components. The bacterial PAA pathway mainly contains 12 enzymes and a transcriptional regulator, which are involved in biofilm formation and antimicrobial activity. They are present in approxi...
