Nucleoid compaction by MrgA in itself is insufficient for oxidative stress resistance, and Asp56 and Glu60 constitute essential molecular sites in MrgA for oxidative stress resistance and survival against phagocytic killing.[MrgA]
Title: Nucleoid compaction by MrgA(Asp56Ala/Glu60Ala) does not contribute to staphylococcal cell survival against oxidative stress and phagocytic killing by macrophages.
