Elucidation of independently modulated genes in Streptococcus pyogenes reveals carbon sources that control its expression of hemolytic toxins

Abstract excerpt

ABSTRACT Streptococcus pyogenes can cause a wide variety of acute infections throughout the body of its human host. An underlying transcriptional regulatory network (TRN) is responsible for altering the physiological state of the bacterium to adapt to each unique host environment. Consequently, an in-depth understanding of the comprehensive dynamics of the S. pyogenes TRN could inform new therapeutic strategies....
