The regulatory protein ChuP connects heme and siderophore-mediated iron acquisition systems required for <i>Chromobacterium violaceum</i> virulence
2022-02-10
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Chromobacterium violaceum is an environmental Gram-negative beta-proteobacterium that causes systemic infections in humans. C. violaceum uses siderophore-based iron acquisition systems to overcome the host-imposed iron limitation, but its capacity to use other iron sources is unknown. In this work, we characterized ChuPRSTUV as a heme utilization system employed by C. violaceum to explore an i...
