Aerobic-Type Ribonucleotide Reductase in the Anaerobe Bacteroides fragilis
(East Carolina University, 2002-02)
Bacteroides fragilis, a component of the normal intestinal flora, is an obligate anaerobe capable of long-term survival in the presence of air. Survival is attributed to an elaborate oxidative stress response that controls ...
Investigations into the roles of bacteroides fragilis thioredoxins during the oxidative stress response
(East Carolina University, 2011)
The Gram-negative Bacteroides fragilis is the most frequently isolated bacterium from anaerobic infections. Native to the human intestinal tract, it serves a symbiotic role breaking down complex polysaccharides and ...
