Response of Escherichia coli minimal ter operon to UVC and auto-aggregation: pilot study
See t.ly/cpXZ Aim The study of minimal ter operon as a determinant of tellurium resistance (TeR) is important for the purpose of confirming the relationship of these genes to the pathogenicity of microorganisms. The ter operon is widespread among bacterial species and pathogens, implicated also in phage inhibition, oxidative stress and colicin resistance. So far, there is no experimental evidence for the role of the Escherichia coli (E. coli) minimal ter operon in ultraviolet C (UVC) resistance, biofilm formation and auto-aggregation. To identify connection with UVC resistance of the minimal ter operon, matched pairs of Ter-positive and -negative E. coli cells were stressed and differences in survival and whole genome sequence…
