Reshuffling transcriptional circuits: how microorganisms adapt to colonize the human body.

Sonakshi De1, J Christian Pérez.   

Abstract

Several hundred taxa of microorganisms-including bacteria, archaea and eukaryotes-inhabit the human body. What did it take for these species to become stable residents of humans? Recent reports illustrate how evolutionary changes in transcriptional circuits played a pivotal role in the adaptation of single-celled eukaryotes to colonize mammals.
