RbsR Activates Capsule but Represses the rbsUDK Operon in Staphylococcus aureus
9 Sept 2015
Abstract excerpt
UNLABELLED: Staphylococcus aureus capsule is an important virulence factor that is regulated by a large number of regulators. Capsule genes are expressed from a major promoter upstream of the cap operon. A 10-bp inverted repeat (IR) located 13 bp upstream of the -35 region of the promoter was previously shown to affect capsule gene transcription. However, little is known about transcriptional activation of the...
