A rubrerythrin locus of <i>Clostridioides difficile</i> efficiently detoxifies reactive oxygen species

2024-09-17

Abstract excerpt

As an intestinal human pathogen, Clostridioides difficile is the main cause of antibiotic-associated diarrhoea. Endospores of this gram-positive bacterium enter the intestinal tract via faecal-oral transmission, germinate into vegetative and toxin-producing cells and can trigger a Clostridioides difficile infection. The microaerophilic conditions (0.1 to 0.4 % O 2 ) of the large intestine represent a challenge...
