Ser/Thr protein kinase PrkC-mediated regulation of GroEL is critical for biofilm formation in Bacillus anthracis
Anthrax bacteria: a step in the pathway to biofilms An enzyme that adds phosphate groups to other proteins, PrkC, mediates molecular signaling events that allow anthrax bacteria to form biofilms. Bacillus anthracis is widely used as a model to explore the formation of biofilms that allows many bacte...
