Transketolase is involved in the control of Sigma B during chronic infection by <i>Staphylococcus aureus</i>
2019-02-02
Abstract excerpt
Staphylococcus aureus is a leading cause of both acute and chronic infections in humans. Its ability to persist within host cells is thought to play an important role in chronicity and treatment failures. The importance of the pentose phosphate pathway (PPP) during S. aureus chronic infection is currently largely unexplored. Here, we focused on one key PPP enzyme, transketolase. We showed that inactivation of the...
