Uropathogenic enterobacteria use the yersiniabactin metallophore system to acquire nickel

15 Aug 2018

Abstract excerpt

Invasive Gram-negative bacteria often express multiple virulence-associated metal ion chelators to combat host-mediated metal deficiencies. Escherichia coli , Klebsiella , and Yersinia pestis isolates encoding the Yersinia high pathogenicity island (HPI) secrete yersiniabactin (Ybt), a metallophore originally shown to chelate iron ions during infection. However, our recent demonstration that Ybt also scavenges...
