We have characterized group A Streptococcus (GAS) genome-wide responses to hydrogen peroxide and assessed the role of the peroxide response regulator (PerR) in GAS under oxidative stress. Comparison of transcriptome changes elicited by peroxide in wild-type bacteria with those in a perR deletion mutant showed that 76 out of 237 peroxide-regulated genes are PerR dependent. Unlike the PerR-mediated upregulation of peroxidases and other peroxide stress defense mechanisms previously reported in gram ...[more]
