Expression of RcrB confers resistance to hypochlorous acid in uropathogenic <i>Escherichia coli</i>
2023-06-01
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> To eradicate bacterial pathogens, neutrophils are recruited to the sites of infection, where they engulf and kill microbes through the production of reactive oxygen and chlorine species (ROS/RCS). The most prominent RCS is antimicrobial oxidant hypochlorous acid (HOCl), which rapidly reacts with various amino acids side chains, including those containing sulfur and primary/tertiary amines, causi...
