Glucose-Related Dissociation between icaADBC Transcription and Biofilm Expression by Staphylococcus epidermidis: Evidence for an Additional Factor Required for Polysaccharide Intercellular Adhesin Synthesis

Biofilm formation in Staphylococcus epidermidis depends, in the majority of the strains, on the activity of the icaADBC locus. The expression of the operon that encodes the synthetic enzymes of the intercellular polysaccharide adhesin (PIA) depends on a variety of exogenic environmental conditions a...
