Filamentation-driven peripheral clustering of the inducible lysine decarboxylase is crucial for E. coli acid stress response

Abstract Bacteria use sophisticated acid stress response strategies to withstand fluctuating environmental pH, with enterobacterial inducible amino acid decarboxylases playing a major role. The lysine decarboxylase LdcI catalyses lysine-to-cadaverine conversion coupled to proton consumption and carb...
