Phase variation of a signal transduction system controls Clostridioides difficile colony morphology, motility, and virulence

E. Garrett, O. Sekulovic, D. Wetzel, J. B. Jones, A. Edwards, G. Vargas-Cuebas, S. McBride, R. Tamayo

This paper identifies a phase-variable signal transduction system in C. difficile that controls colony morphology, motility, and virulence, with implications for bacterial survival and pathogenesis.
