Antibiotics Shaping Bacterial Genome: Deletion of an IS91 Flanked Virulence Determinant upon Exposure to Subinhibitory Antibiotic Concentrations

The nucleoid-associated proteins Hha and YdgT repress the expression of the toxin α-hemolysin. An Escherichia coli mutant lacking these proteins overexpresses the toxin α-hemolysin encoded in the multicopy recombinant plasmid pANN202-312R. Unexpectedly, we could observe that this mutant generated cl...
