Copper stress upregulates oxidative stress response, histidine production and iron acquisition genes in E. coli
Abstract Copper is widely used as a fast-acting antimicrobial, yet the strategies that allow bacteria to survive copper stress remain incompletely understood. Here, we characterize the transcriptional responses of Escherichia coli MG1655 to excess ionic copper using RNA sequencing and a genome-wide GFP-based promoter l...
