UreR, the Transcriptional Activator of the Proteus mirabilis Urease Gene Cluster, Is Required for Urease Activity and Virulence in Experimental Urinary Tract Infections

Proteus mirabilis, a cause of complicated urinary tract infection, produces urease, an essential virulence factor for this species. UreR, a member of the AraC/XylS family of transcriptional regulators, positively activates expression of the ure gene cluster in the presence of urea. To specifically e...
