Abstract excerpt
Inactivation of Agrobacterium tumefaciens soxR increases sensitivity to superoxide generators. soxR expression is highly induced by superoxide stress and is autoregulated. SoxR also directly regulates the superoxide-inducible expression of atu5152. Taken together, the physiological role of soxR and the mechanism by which it regulates expression of target genes make the A. tumefaciens SoxR system different from...
