    A Universal Stress Protein That Controls Bacterial Stress Survival in Micrococcus luteus

    Bacteria tolerate severe external stresses, including antibiotics, through a nonreplicative persistent (NRP) survival state, yet the proteins regulating this survival state are largely unknown. We show a specific universal stress protein (UspA616) controls the NRP state in Micrococcus luteus. Usps are widely conserved across bacteria, but their biological function(s)...
