<i>Enterococcus faecalis</i> manganese exporter MntE alleviates manganese toxicity and is required for mouse gastrointestinal colonization

2020-02-07

Abstract excerpt

Bacterial pathogens encounter a variety of nutritional environments in the human host, including nutrient metal restriction and overload. Uptake of manganese (Mn) is essential for Enterococcus faecalis growth and virulence; however, it is not known how this organism prevents Mn toxicity. In this study, we examine the role of the highly conserved MntE transporter in E. faecalis Mn homeostasis and virulence. We sh...
