General Information Comment Organism
physiological function A pdi disruption mutant is attenuated for virulence in the hybrid striped bass model and for survival in whole fish blood. Pdi promotes bacterial resistance to lysozyme killing and the ability to adhere to and invade epithelial cells. There is no difference in the autolytic potential, resistance to oxidative killing or resistance to cationic antimicrobial peptides between Streptococcus iniae wild-type and pdi disruption mutant Streptococcus iniae
