HIGHLIGHTS
- who: Rubén Monárrez from the (UNIVERSITY) have published the paper: A plasmid-encoded papB paralogue modulates autoaggregation of Escherichia coli transconjugants, in the Journal: (JOURNAL)
- what: This study has identified and characterized gene capable of down-regulating host adhesins and has shown that transacting papB/pefB paralogues can occur outside the context of an adhesin cluster. The authors report that deletion of this portion of plasmid pMB2 produces the smaller pRMKO plasmid that is sufficient to enhance autoaggregation in laboratory E. coli strains in a manner that pMB2 does not.
