The Escherichia coli BtuE protein functions as a resistance determinant against reactive oxygen species.

The Escherichia coli BtuE protein functions as a resistance determinant against reactive oxygen species.

This work shows that the recently described Escherichia coli BtuE peroxidase protects the bacterium against oxidative stress that is generated by tellurite and by other reactive oxygen species elicitors (ROS). Cells lacking btuE (ΔbtuE) displayed higher sensitivity to K(2)TeO(3) and other oxidative...
