Pathogenic bacteria need to sense and respond to stresses to survive harsh environments and also be able to turn off the response when no longer facing stress. Activity of the stress sigma factor SigB in the human pathogenListeria monocytogenes is controlled by a hierarchic system having a large stress-sensing multiprotein complex known as the stressosome at the top.
