Arginine promotes Proteus mirabilis motility and fitness by contributing to conservation of the proton gradient and proton motive force

Swarming contributes to Proteus mirabilis pathogenicity by facilitating access to the catheterized urinary tract. We previously demonstrated that 0.1–20 mmol/L arginine promotes swarming on normally nonpermissive media and that putrescine biosynthesis is required for arginine-induced swarming. We al...
