Effects of Enterococcus faecalis fsr genes on production of gelatinase and a serine protease and virulence.

Infection and immunity - 1 May 2000

Qin X, Singh K V, Weinstock G M, Murray B E

Abstract excerpt

Three agr-like genes (fsrA, fsrB, and fsrC, for Enterococcus faecalis regulator) were found upstream of the previously reported gelatinase gene (gelE) and a downstream putative serine protease gene (sprE; accession number Z12296) of Enterococcus faecalis OG1RF. The deduced amino acid sequence of fsrA shows 26% identity and 38% similarity to Staphylococcus aureus AgrA (the response regulator of the accessory gene...
