drug target | drug-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, especially methicillin-resistant (MRSA) and vancomycin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (VRSA), pose a great threat to human health globally. The Trx system in GSH-deficient pathogens is a viable antibacterial drug target | Staphylococcus aureus |
physiological function | the thioredoxin system, which is composed of NADPH, thioredoxin reductase (TrxR), and thioredoxin (Trx), is one of the major disulfide reductase systems used by bacteria against oxidative stress. This reductase system is crucial for the survival of the pathogenic bacterium Staphylococcus aureus, which lacks a natural glutathione/glutaredoxin (Grx) system | Staphylococcus aureus |
