Work horse strain <i>Clostridioides difficile</i> 630Δ <i>erm</i> is oblivious to its anaerobic lifestyle
2020-01-08
Abstract excerpt
The laboratory reference strain 630Δ erm of the anaerobic human pathogen Clostridioides difficile is characterized by a remarkable high oxygen tolerance. We show that an amino acid exchange in the DNA binding domain of the hydrogen peroxide sensor PerR results in a constitutive derepression of PerR-controlled genes and thus in an oxidative stress response even under anaerobic conditions. This questions the model...
