3'-Phosphoadenosine-5'-phosphate phosphatase activity is required for superoxide stress tolerance in Streptococcus mutans.

Journal of bacteriology - 1 Jul 2009

Zhang Jiaqin, Biswas Indranil

Abstract excerpt

Aerobic microorganisms have evolved different strategies to withstand environmental oxidative stresses generated by various reactive oxygen species (ROS). For the facultative anaerobic human oral pathogen Streptococcus mutans, the mechanisms used to protect against ROS are not fully understood, since it does not possess catalase, an enzyme that degrades hydrogen peroxide. In order to elucidate the genes that are...
