The ClpX protease is essential for removing the CI master repressor and completing prophage induction in <i>Staphylococcus aureus</i>
2022-09-18
Abstract excerpt
Bacteriophages (phages) are the predominant biological entities on the planet and play an important role in the spread of bacterial virulence, pathogenicity, and antimicrobial resistance. After infection, temperate phages can integrate in the bacterial chromosome thanks to the expression of the prophage-encoded CI master repressor. Upon SOS induction, and promoted by RecA*, CI auto-cleaves generating two fragments...
