XerC is required for the repair of antibiotic- and immune-mediated DNA damage in <i>Staphylococcus aureus</i>
2022-09-04
Abstract excerpt
To survive in the host environment, pathogenic bacteria need to be able repair DNA damage caused by both antibiotics and the immune system. The SOS response is a key bacterial pathway to repair DNA double strand breaks and may therefore be a good target for novel therapeutics to sensitise bacteria to antibiotics and the immune response. However, the genes required for the SOS response in Staphylococcus aureus hav...
