Actuation of CRP activating region 3 by acetylation modulates V. cholerae sugar utilization and virulence

Renato Elias Rodrigues de Souza Santos, Pallabi Basu, Brendan J. O’Hara…·Paula I. Watnick

This study shows that acetylation of CRP K52 activates AR3, leading to changes in gene expression that affect sugar utilization and virulence in V. cholerae.
