In Vivo Dissection of theHelicobacter pyloriFur Regulatory Circuit by Genome-Wide Location Analysis

Abstract excerpt

Iron homeostasis is particularly important in pathogenic bacteria, which need to compete with the host for this essential cofactor. In Helicobacter pylori, a causative agent of several gastric pathologies, iron uptake and storage genes are regulated at the transcriptional level by the ferric uptake regulator Fur. The regulatory circuit of Fur has recently come under focus because of an intimate interlink with a...
