Contributions of ferric uptake regulator Fur to the sensitivity and oxidative response of Acinetobacter baumannii to antibiotics.

Microbial pathogenesis - 1 Jun 2018

Ajiboye T O, Skiebe E, Wilharm G

Abstract excerpt

Ferric uptake regulator (Fur) is important in the regulation of bacterial iron metabolism and uptake of Fe from the environment. We evaluated the contribution of fur to the sensitivity and oxidative response of A. baumannii to antibiotics. Deletion of fur increased the sensitivity of A. baumannii AB5075 to colistin, gentamicin, rifampicin and tigecycline. Furthermore, activities of superoxide dismutase and...
