Forward Genetic Dissection of Biofilm Development by <named-content content-type="genus-species">Fusobacterium nucleatum</named-content>: Novel Functions of Cell Division Proteins FtsX and EnvC

ABSTRACT Fusobacterium nucleatum is a key member of the human oral biofilm. It is also implicated in preterm birth and colorectal cancer. To facilitate basic studies of fusobacterial virulence, we describe here a versatile transposon mutagenesis procedure and a pilot screen for mutants defective in...
