Enterococcus faecalis mutations affecting virulence in the Caenorhabditis elegans model host.

Arash Maadani1, Kristina A Fox, Elftherios Mylonakis, Danielle A Garsin.   

Abstract

Enterococcus faecalis transposon insertion mutants were screened for attenuated killing of the nematode model host Caenorhabditis elegans. The genes disrupted in the attenuated mutants encode a variety of factors including transcriptional regulators, transporters, and damage control and repair systems. Five of nine mutants tested were attenuated in a mouse peritonitis model.
