Zinc Homeostasis at the Bacteria/Host Interface—From Coordination Chemistry to Nutritional Immunity

24 Aug 2016

Abstract excerpt

Abstract Zinc is one of the most important metal nutrients for species from all kingdoms, being a key structural or catalytic component of hundreds of enzymes, crucial for the survival of both pathogenic microorganisms and their hosts. This work is an overview of the homeostasis of zinc in bacteria and humans. It explains the importance of this metal nutrient for pathogens, describes the roles of zinc sensors,...
