TEST TEST Biofilm formation by the environmental and clinical contaminant Mycobacterium fortuitum causes economic losses and serious TEST TEST TEST

ABSTRACT: Biofilm formation by the environmental and clinical contaminant Mycobacterium fortuitum causes economic losses and serious threat to human health, as a consequence of its increasing contribution to nosocomial infections. There are no reports that elucidate physiological adaptations taking place during its planktonic to biofilm transition. The present study was hence carried out considering the global proteome of the mycobacterium. This is the first description of a global proteomic investigation into M. fortuitum biofilm. Scrutiny of biological functions in the two states provided insights into the phenotypic switch, and fundamental pathways associated with M. fortuitum pathobiology.
