abstract：:Gene regulation mechanisms have evolved allowing cells to finetune the level of "endogenous" oxidative stress and to cope with increased free radicals from external sources. Levels of H2O2 are tightly controlled in E. coli by OxyR, which is activated by H2O2 to increase scavenging activities and limit H2O2 generation ...
