Adaptation of Aerobically GrowingPseudomonas aeruginosato Copper Starvation
18 Aug 2008
Abstract excerpt
Restricted bioavailability of copper in certain environments can interfere with cellular respiration because copper is an essential cofactor of most terminal oxidases. The global response of the metabolically versatile bacterium and opportunistic pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa to copper limitation was assessed under aerobic conditions. Expression of cioAB (encoding an alternative, copper-independent,...
