Probing the role of protein surface charge in the activation of PrfA, the central regulator of Listeria monocytogenes pathogenesis.
Listeria monocytogenes is a food-borne intracellular bacterial pathogen capable of causing serious human disease. L. monocytogenes survival within mammalian cells depends upon the synthesis of a number of secreted virulence factors whose expression is regulated by the transcriptional activator PrfA....
