Transcription Regulation of a Response to Reactive Oxygen Species Exposure in Pseudomonas aeruginosa, a Causative Agent of Nosocomial Infection

Assoc. Prof. Dr. Mayuree Fuangthong Chulabhorn Research Institute Bacterial ability to overcome host defense is one of a key factor for bacteria including Pseudomonas aeruginosa, which is an important human pathogen, to infect host successfully. In this study, bioinformatic analysis of P. aeruginosa PAO1 genome reveals the presence of PA0242 encoding putative 4-hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase enzyme…. (read more)
