Spx mediates oxidative stress regulation of the methionine sulfoxide reductases operon in <it>Bacillus subtilis</it>
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>All aerobically grown living cells are exposed to oxidative damage by reactive oxygen species (ROS). A major damage by ROS to proteins is caused by covalent modifications of methionine residues giving methionine sulfoxide (Met-SO). M...
