Abstract 2037 Streptococcus agalactiae virulence is facilitated by zinc homeostasis
Mutants can then be used in desiccation or irradiation recovery assays.A lower recovery rate (compared to wild-type controls) would suggest a role for the LigE gene in DNA repair, and provide an important next step in elucidating the mechanism of DNA repair in these remarkable animals.
