TagR, a newly identified member of the MarR family of transcriptional regulators, represses the NRPS operon in Klebsiella oxytoca
ABSTRACT Toxigenic Klebsiella oxytoca strains produce the pyrrolobenzodiazepine enterotoxins tilimycin (TM) and tilivalline (TV), which contribute to the development of antibiotic-associated hemorrhagic colitis. The biosynthesis of these toxins depends on the nonribosomal peptide synthetase (NRPS) operon located within...
