Abstract excerpt
Homologues of the catalase-peroxidase gene katG and the gene for the non-specific DNA binding protein dpsA were identified downstream of oxyR in Burkholderia pseudomallei. Northern experiments revealed that both katG and dpsA are co-transcribed during oxidative stress. Under conditions where the katG promoter is not highly induced, dpsA is transcribed from a second promoter located within the katG-dpsA intergenic...
