Abstract excerpt
In Listeria monocytogenes the alternative sigma factor sigmaB plays important roles in both virulence and stress tolerance. In this study a proteomic approach was used to define components of the sigmaB regulon in L. monocytogenes 10403S (serotype 1/2a). Using two-dimensional gel electrophoresis and the recently developed isobaric tags for relative and absolute quantitation technique, the protein expression...
