The DmsABC S-oxide reductase is an essential component of a novel, hypochlorite-inducible system of extracellular stress defense in Haemophilus influenzae

Defenses against oxidative damage to cell components are essential for survival of bacterial pathogens during infection, and here we have uncovered that the DmsABC S-/N-oxide reductase is essential for virulence and in-host survival of the human-adapted pathogen, Haemophilus influenzae. In several d...
