Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: We previously identified an ECF sigma factor, σS, that is important in the stress and virulence response of Staphylococcus aureus. Transcriptional profiling of sigS revealed that it is differentially expressed in many laboratory and clinical isolates, suggesting the existence of regulatory networks that modulates its expression. RESULTS: To identify regulators of sigS, we performed a pull down assay...
