Oxidative stress, through the production of reactive oxygen species, is a natural
consequence of aerobic metabolism. Escherichia coli has several major regulators activated …

Facultative bacteria can grow under either oxic or anoxic conditions. While oxygen provides
substantial advantages in energy yield by respiration, it can become life-threatening …

Oxy R, a L ys R‐type transcriptional regulator, has been established as a redox‐responsive
activator of antioxidant genes in bacteria. This study shows that O xy R acts as a …

Alkyl hydroperoxide reductase subunit C (AhpC) is the catalytic subunit responsible for the
detoxification of reactive oxygen species that form in bacterial cells or are derived from the …

Mutant phenotypes provide strong clues to the functions of the underlying genes and could
allow annotation of the millions of sequenced yet uncharacterized bacterial genes. However …

In C. crescentus, iron metabolism is mainly controlled by the transcription factor Fur (ferric
uptake regulator). Iron-bound Fur represses genes related to iron uptake and can directly …

This study shows that the expression of yjcC, an in vivo expression (IVE) gene, and the
stress response regulatory genes soxR, soxS, and rpoS are paraquat inducible in Klebsiella …

In many bacteria, OxyR acts as a transcriptional regulator that facilitates infection via
degrading hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) generated by the host defense response. Previous …

Spontaneous fermentation during black tea production involves several reactions, including
the oxidation of phenolic compounds. This process has usually been studied without …

Vibrio parahaemolyticus is a common marine food-borne enteropathogen. In this study, we
examined the antioxidative activity, growth, biofilm formation, and cell mobility of an oxyR …
