Modulating Kinetics of the Amyloid-Like Aggregation of <i>S. aureus</i> Phenol-Soluble Modulins by Changes in pH
The pathogen <i>Staphylococcus aureus</i> is recognized as one of the most frequent causes of biofilm-associated infections. The recently identified phenol-soluble modulin (PSM) peptides act as the key molecular effectors of staphylococcal biofilm maturation and promote the formation of...
