Role of Staphylococcus aureus catalase in niche competition against Streptococcus pneumoniae.

Journal of bacteriology - 1 Apr 2008

Park Bonggoo, Nizet Victor, Liu George Y

Abstract excerpt

Nasal colonization by Staphylococcus aureus is a major predisposing factor for subsequent infection. Recent reports of increased S. aureus colonization among children receiving pneumococcal vaccine implicate Streptococcus pneumoniae as an important competitor for the same niche. Since S. pneumoniae uses H2O2 to kill competing bacteria, we hypothesized that oxidant defense could play a significant role in...
