Elements in the LftR Repressor Operator Interface Contributing to Regulation of Aurantimycin Resistance in Listeria monocytogenes

Abstract
Listeria monocytogenes is an environmental bacterium that lives in the soil but can infect humans upon ingestion, and this can lead to severe invasive disease. Adaptation to these entirely different habitats involves massive reprogramming of transcription.
