Staphylococcus aureus SOS response: Activation, impact, and drug targets [PDF]
Staphylococcus aureus is a common cause of diverse infections, ranging from superficial to invasive, affecting both humans and animals. The widespread use of antibiotics in clinical treatments has led to the emergence of antibiotic‐resistant strains and ...

Protein Transfer through an F Plasmid-Encoded Type IV Secretion System Suppresses the Mating-Induced SOS Response [PDF]
Bacterial type IV secretion systems (T4SSs) mediate the conjugative transfer of mobile genetic elements (MGEs) and their cargoes of antibiotic resistance and virulence genes.

Fluoroquinolone-specific resistance trajectories in E. coli and their dependence on the SOS-response [PDF]
Background Fluoroquinolones are indispensable antibiotics used in treating bacterial infections in both human and veterinary medicine. However, resistance to these drugs presents a growing challenge.

Zinc blocks SOS-induced antibiotic resistance via inhibition of RecA in Escherichia coli. [PDF]
Zinc inhibits the virulence of diarrheagenic E. coli by inducing the envelope stress response and inhibiting the SOS response. The SOS response is triggered by damage to bacterial DNA. In Shiga-toxigenic E.

Differential requirements of two recA mutants for constitutive SOS expression in Escherichia coli K-12. [PDF]
Repairing DNA damage begins with its detection and is often followed by elicitation of a cellular response. In E. coli, RecA polymerizes on ssDNA produced after DNA damage and induces the SOS Response.
