Transcriptional Activation of the mrkA Promoter of the Klebsiella pneumoniae Type 3 Fimbrial Operon by the c-di-GMP-Dependent MrkH Protein

The Gram-negative bacterial pathogen Klebsiella pneumoniae forms biofilms to facilitate colonization of biotic and abiotic surfaces. The formation of biofilms by K. pneumoniae requires the expression of type 3 fimbriae: elongate proteinaceous filaments extruded by a chaperone-usher system in the bac...
