The dlt operon confers resistance to cationic antimicrobial peptides in Clostridium difficile.
The dlt operon in Clostridium difficile confers resistance to cationic antimicrobial peptides (CAMPs) such as nisin, polymyxin B, gallidermin, and vancomycin. Disruption of the dltD gene significantly reduces resistance to these CAMPs, and complementation restores resistance.
