Abstract: Results demonstrate that expression of oxidative stress defence genes katB-ankB, ahpB, and ahpC-ahpF is regulated by oxyR gene product and is located upstream of DNA repair enzyme coding gene recG. Data indicate that the oxyR-recG locus governs oxidative stress and DNA repair function in Pseudomonas aeruginosa.
