Studies of the RIC protein in Staphylococcus aureus

"Repair Iron center (RIC) protein is a di-iron center containing protein widely distributed among bacteria that contributes to pathogen resistance. In Escherichia coli, RIC is able to donate iron for repairing of damaged iron sulfur clusters. Moreover, RIC protein confer resistance to Staphyloc...

Description
Summary:"Repair Iron center (RIC) protein is a di-iron center containing protein widely distributed among bacteria that contributes to pathogen resistance. In Escherichia coli, RIC is able to donate iron for repairing of damaged iron sulfur clusters. Moreover, RIC protein confer resistance to Staphylococcus aureus exposed to reactive oxidative and nitrosative stresses in murine macrophages(...)"
