Transcriptional profiles of wild-type NCTC11168 and Cj0480c mutant grown without fucose
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Strain specific growth of C. jejuni on fucose has been linked to a plasticity region of the chromosome (PR2) and confers a competitive advantage during intestinal colonization. Growth on fucose induces gene expression of PR2 genes, but the regulatory mechanism of the structural genes involved with fucose utilization is unknown. A mutant was constructed to examine the role of Cj0480c, a putative IclR-type transcriptional regulator, on PR2 gene expression. Transcriptional profiles of wild-type C. jejuni and the Cj0480c mutant strain grown without fucose may provide insight in to the extent of the fucose regulon and genes that are necessary for fucose utilization.
