The GraS/GraR two-component system has been shown to control cationic antimicrobial peptide (CAMP) resistance in the major human pathogen Staphylococcus aureus. We identified a highly conserved ten base pair palindromic sequence (5’ ACAAATTTGT 3’) located upstream from GraR-regulated genes (mprF and...
E. coli O157:H7 can use vegetables such as spinach as secondary hosts, from where they can be transmitted into the food chain. Our previous microarray analysis showed whole-scale changes in gene expression of E. coli driven in a large part in response to plant metabolites. The aim of this work was t...
