Abstract:11Acinetobacter baumannii poses a great threat in healthcare settings worldwide with clinical isolates 12 revealing an ever evolving multidrug-resistance. Here, we report the molecular mechanisms 13governing the tight repression of the error-prone DNA polymerase umuDC genes in this important 14 bacterial human pathogen. We demonstrate that the small DdrR protein directly interacts with the 15UmuDAb transcription repressor, which possesses some similarities to LexA proteins from other 16 bacteria, to increase t… Show more
