Genetic Determinants of Hydrogen Sulfide Biosynthesis in Fusobacterium nucleatum Are Required for Bacterial Fitness, Antibiotic Sensitivity, and Virulence

The Gram-negative anaerobe Fusobacterium nucleatum is a major producer of hydrogen sulfide (H(2)S), a volatile sulfur compound that causes halitosis. Here, we dissected the genetic determinants of H(2)S production and its role in bacterial fitness and virulence in this important member of the oral m...
