TonB is essential for virulence in avian pathogenic Escherichia coli.

Comparative immunology, microbiology and infectious diseases - 1 Mar 2012

Abstract excerpt

Avian pathogenic Escherichia coli (APEC) strains have multiple iron-uptake systems that facilitate adaptation to iron-restricted environments and are believed to assist in colonisation of the host. These systems include several TonB-dependent transporters of ferri-siderophores encoded by the chromosome and the large virulence plasmid common to APECs. The tonB gene of the virulent APEC strain E956 was replaced...
