A Neisseria gonorrhoeae catalase mutant is more sensitive to hydrogen peroxide and paraquat, an inducer of toxic oxygen radicals.

Microbial pathogenesis - 1 Aug 2004

Soler-García Angel A, Jerse Ann E

Abstract excerpt

Catalase is hypothesized to be critical in the protection of Neisseria gonorrhoeae from H2O2 produced during aerobic respiration and by phagocytes during infection. Here we cloned the catalase (kat) gene of gonococcal strain FA1090 and constructed a genetically defined N. gonorrhoeae kat mutant t...
