From Catheter to Kidney Stone: The Uropathogenic Lifestyle of Proteus mirabilis
Abstract
Proteus mirabilis is a model organism for urease-producing uropathogens. These diverse bacteria cause infection stones in the urinary tract and form crystalline biofilms on indwelling urinary catheters, frequently leading to polymicrobial infection.
