Sulfide Homeostasis and Nitroxyl Intersect via Formation of Reactive Sulfur Species in <named-content content-type="genus-species">Staphylococcus aureus</named-content>

ABSTRACT Staphylococcus aureus is a commensal human pathogen and a major cause of nosocomial infections. As gaseous signaling molecules, endogenous hydrogen sulfide (H2S) and nitric oxide (NO·) protect S. aureus from antibiotic stress synergistically, which we propose involves the intermediacy of ni...
