Vesić Dušanka, Kristich Christopher J
Abstract excerpt
Rex factors are bacterial transcription factors thought to respond to the cellular NAD(+)/NADH ratio in order to modulate gene expression by differentially binding DNA. To date, Rex factors have been implicated in regulating genes of central metabolism, oxidative stress response, and biofilm formation. The genome of Enterococcus faecalis, a low-GC Gram-positive opportunistic pathogen, encodes EF2638, a putative...
