A large family of antivirulence regulators modulates the effects of transcriptional activators in Gram-negative pathogenic bacteria.

We have reported that transcription of a hypothetical small open reading frame (orf60) in enteroaggregative E. coli (EAEC) strain 042 is impaired after mutation of aggR, which encodes a global virulence activator. We have also reported that the cryptic orf60 locus was linked to protection against EA...
