Bioinformatic Analysis of virulence regulator PrfA and Antimicrobial Resistance of Listeria monocytogenes isolated from artisan cheeses in Cundinamarca
Year: 2012
Type: article
Abstract: Several studies have demonstrated the presence of L. monocytogenes in non industrialized cheeses in Colombia. In Cundinamarca one of the main products is artisan cheese, which is highly consumed by tourist and native population. Previously, molecular serotyping was consider as a determinant test to establish L. monocytogenes virulence, however today it is consider that this test is not sufficient and efforts have been made in the characterization, molecular study and function of PrfA regulator in the expression of the virulence of this microorganism.
