Redefining the Clostridioides difficile σ(B) Regulon: σ(B) Activates Genes Involved in Detoxifying Radicals That Can Result from the Exposure to Antimicrobials and Hydrogen Peroxide

In many Gram-positive bacteria, the general stress response is regulated at the transcriptional level by the alternative sigma factor sigma B (σ(B)). In C. difficile, σ(B) has been implicated in protection against stressors such as reactive oxygen species (ROS) and antimicrobial compounds. Here, we...
