Phage-encoded sRNA counteracts xenogeneic silencing in pathogenic E. coli

Horizontal gene transfer introduces foreign DNA that can disrupt cellular processes and is therefore subject to xenogeneic silencing by nucleoid-associated proteins such as H-NS and Hha. In Enterohaemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC), prophages make up a large fraction of the accessory genome and encode many virulence f...
