Mol Gen Genet . 1995 Aug; 248(4):446-58. PMID: 7565609
The synthesis of virulence factors and other exoproteins in Staphylococcus aureus is controlled by the global regulator, agr. Expression of secreted proteins is up-regulated in the postexponential growth phase, whereas...

J Infect Dis . 1993 Oct; 168(4):1063-5. PMID: 8376822
Isoniazid resistance in Mycobacterium tuberculosis is associated with lack of catalase-peroxidase activity. A recent study showed that some isoniazid-resistant M. tuberculosis strains have a complete deletion of the gene (katG)...
