Mucoid Pseudomonas aeruginosa in cystic fibrosis: characterization of muc mutations in clinical isolates and analysis of clearance in a mouse model of respiratory infection.

A distinguishing feature of Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolates from cystic fibrosis (CF) patients is their mucoid, exopolysaccharide alginate-overproducing phenotype. One mechanism of conversion to mucoidy is based on mutations in the algU mucABCD cluster, encoding the stress sigma factor AlgU and its...
