Mfd protects against oxidative stress in Bacillus subtilis independently of its canonical function in DNA repair

BACKGROUND: Previous reports showed that mutagenesis in nutrient-limiting conditions is dependent on Mfd in Bacillus subtilis. Mfd initiates one type of transcription-coupled repair (TCR); this type of repair is known to target bulky lesions, like those associated with UV exposure. Interestingly, th...
