Role of the manganese efflux system mntE for signalling and pathogenesis in Streptococcus pneumoniae

17 Feb 2009

Abstract excerpt

The ability of bacteria to sense and respond to both environmental and intracellular metal concentrations plays an important role in pathogenesis. The acquisition of manganese is vital for the virulence of several bacterial species. Although manganese uptake systems have been well studied in bacteria, no manganese efflux system has yet been identified. In this study we have identified a cation diffusion...
