A nickel ABC-transporter of Staphylococcus aureus is involved in urinary tract infection

20 Jul 2010

Abstract excerpt

The oligopeptide transport systems Opp belong to the nickel/peptide/opine PepT subfamily of ABC-transporters. The opportunist pathogen Staphylococcus aureus encodes four putative Opps and one orphean substrate binding protein Opp5A. Here, we report that the Opp2 permease complex (Opp2BCDF) and Opp5A are involved in nickel uptake and then renamed them NikBCDE and NikA respectively. S. aureus carries also a...
