Abstract excerpt
Lactococcus lactis ssp. cremoris MG1363 contains two FNR homologues, FlpA and FlpB, encoded by the distal genes of two paralogous operons (orfX(A/B)-orfY(A/B)-flpA/B). An flpA flpB double mutant strain is hypersensitive to hydrogen peroxide and has a depleted intracellular Zn(II) pool. The phenot...
