Molecular Characterization of Two Phenotypes of Mixta calida Isolated from Post-Liver Transplant Drainage Fluid

We isolated a strain of Mixta calida from the perihepatic drainage fluid of post-liver transplant patients, exhibiting two phenotypes: a dry type and a mucous type. Through prokaryotic transcriptome analysis, we investigated the transcriptional differences between the two strains to elucidate the reasons for their phenotypic variations.
