McsA is a key modulator of stress response in Staphylococcus aureus that contains four CXXC potential metal-binding motifs at the N-terminal. Staphylococcus aureus ctsR operon encodes ctsR, clpC, and putative mcsA and mcsB genes. The expression of the ctsR operon in S. aureus was shown to be induced...
