<i>Staphylococcus aureus</i> does not synthesize arginine from proline under physiological conditions
2022-01-14
Abstract excerpt
The Gram-positive pathogen Staphylococcus aureus is the only bacterium known to synthesize arginine from proline via the arginine-proline interconversion pathway, despite having genes for the well-conserved glutamate pathway. Since the proline-arginine interconversion pathway is repressed by CcpA-mediated carbon catabolite repression (CCR), CCR has been attributed to the arginine auxotrophy of S. aureus . Using...
