Reduce, Induce, Thrive: Bacterial Redox Sensing during Pathogenesis.

abstract：:While the protein complex responsible for controlling the direction (clockwise [CW] or counterclockwise [CCW]) of flagellar rotation has been fairly well studied in Escherichia coli and Salmonella, less is known about the switch complex in Bacillus subtilis or other Gram-positive species. Two component proteins (FliG ...
