Mutation of the Carboxy-Terminal Processing Protease in Acinetobacter baumannii Affects Motility, Leads to Loss of Membrane Integrity, and Reduces Virulence

Motility plays an essential role in the host–parasite relationship of pathogenic bacteria, and is often associated with virulence. While many pathogenic bacteria use flagella for locomotion, Acinetobacter baumannii strains do not have flagella, but have other features that aid in their motility. To...
