The DmsABC Sulfoxide Reductase Supports Virulence in Non-typeable Haemophilus influenzae

The DmsABC Sulfoxide Reductase Supports Virulence in Non-typeable Haemophilus influenzae

Although molybdenum-containing enzymes are well-established as having a key role in bacterial respiration, it is increasingly recognized that some may also support bacterial virulence. Here, we show that DmsABC, a putative dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) reductase, is required for fitness of the respirator...
