Transcriptomic analysis reveals resistance mechanisms of Klebsiella michiganensis to copper toxicity under acidic conditions

The aim of this study was to elucidate the effect of pH on bacterial resistance mechanisms to copper (Cu) stress by genomic and transcriptomic analysis. Klebsiella michiganensis cells were exposed to 0.5 mM CuCl2 at pH 4 and 5. Lower pH (pH < 4) strongly inhibited K. michiganensis growth, while C...
