additional information | the enzyme is upregulated by CadC in response to acid stress, and is also induced by SoxR in response to superoxide stress, SoxR binds directly to the promoter region of the cadBA operon, coding for a lysine-cadaverine antiporter, CadB, and the lysine decarboxylase CadA | Vibrio vulnificus |

gene cadA, encoded in the cadBA operon, also coding for a lysine-cadaverine antiporter, CadB, expression of cadA in Escherichia coli strain S17-1 and S17-1lambdapir, transcription of cadBA in a pH-dependent manner, overview | Vibrio vulnificus |

additional information | a lack of cadaverine caused by mutation in cadA results in low tolerance to oxidative stress compared to the wild type, cadaverine, which neutralizes the external medium, also appears to scavenge superoxide radicals, since increasing cellular cadaverine by elevating the gene dosage of cadBA significantly diminished the induction of Mn-containing superoxide dismutase under methyl viologen-induced oxidative stress, overview | Vibrio vulnificus |
