The Evolution and Sequence Diversity of FhuA in <i>Salmonella</i> and <i>Escherichia</i>

2018-05-11

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> The fhuACDB operon, present in a number of Enterobacteriaceae , encodes components essential for the uptake of ferric hydroxamate type siderophores. FhuA acts not only as transporter for physiologically important chelated ferric iron, but also as receptor for various bacteriophages, toxins and antibiotics, which are pathogenic to bacterial cells. In this research, the fhuA gene distribution a...
