The glutathione import system satisfies the <i>Staphylococcus aureus</i> nutrient sulfur requirement and promotes interspecies competition

2021-10-26

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Sulfur is an indispensable element for proliferation of bacterial pathogens. Prior studies indicated that the human pathogen, Staphylococcus aureus utilizes glutathione (GSH) as a source of nutrient sulfur; however, mechanisms of GSH acquisition are not defined. Here, we identify a previously uncharacterized five-gene locus comprising a putative ABC-transporter and γ–glutamyl transpeptidase (...
