Proteomic profiling of Rhizobium tropici PRF 81: identification of conserved and specific responses to heat stress.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Campylobacter jejuni (C. jejuni) is a leading cause of foodborne gastroenteritis worldwide. This bacterium lacks many of the classical virulence factors, and flagellum-associated persistent colonization has been shown to be crucial for its pathogenesis. The flagellum plays a multifunctional role in C. jejuni...
