“…They function in LOS synthesis (rfaCDEF, kdsA), iron acquisition and detoxification (bfrAB, hemolysin III, bcp), efflux (macA, farA), transcriptional regulation (farR,), and cell wall recycling, synthesis and repair (ltgD/mltB, dacC), among others [55][56][57][58][59][60][61][62][63][64][65]. At least three ORFs, (mip, nspA, cbf), encode homologs of surface expressed immunomodulatory proteins [60,[66][67][68]. A transporter of surface associated proteins (slam1) was also required for persistence [69,70].…”
