Among others, methionine residues are highly susceptible to host-generated oxidants.
Repair of oxidized methionine (Met-SO) residues to methionine (Met) by methionine …

Haemophilus influenzae is a commensal of the human upper respiratory tract that can infect
diverse host niches due, at least in part, to its ability to withstand both endogenous and host …

Defenses against oxidative damage to cell components are essential for survival of bacterial
pathogens during infection, and here we have uncovered that the DmsABC S-/N-oxide …

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 …

Methionine oxidation to the sulfoxide form (MS ox) is a poorly understood post-translational
modification of proteins associated with non-specific chemical oxidation from reactive …
