AhpA is a peroxidase expressed during biofilm formation in Bacillus subtilis

Organisms growing aerobically generate reactive oxygen species such as hydrogen peroxide. These reactive oxygen molecules damage enzymes and DNA, potentially causing cell death. In response, Bacillus subtilis produces at least nine potential peroxide‐scavenging enzymes; two belong to the alkylhydrop...
