Analysis of the Zinc Finger Domain of TnpA, a DNA Targeting Protein Encoded by Mobilizable Transposon Tn4555
(East Carolina University, 2007-07)
The mobilizable transposon Tn4555, found in Bacteroides spp., is an important antibiotic resistance element encoding a broad spectrum beta-lactamase. Tn4555 is mobilized by conjugative transposons such as CTn341 which can ...
Thioredoxin Reductase Is Essential for Thiol/Disulfide Redox Control and Oxidative Stress Survival of the Anaerobe Bacteroides fragilis
(East Carolina University, 2007-11)
Results of this study showed that the anaerobic, opportunistic pathogen Bacteroides fragilis lacks the
glutathione/glutaredoxin redox system and possesses an extensive number of putative thioredoxin (Trx)
orthologs. ...
