CsrA Enhances Cyclic-di-GMP Biosynthesis and Yersinia pestis Biofilm Blockage of the Flea Foregut by Alleviating Hfq-Dependent Repression of the hmsT mRNA
Plague-causing Yersinia pestis is transmitted through regurgitation when it forms a biofilm-mediated blockage in the foregut of its flea vector. This biofilm is composed of an extracellular polysaccharide substance (EPS) produced when cyclic-di-GMP (c-di-GMP) levels are elevated. The Y. pestis digua...
