Itaconate utilisation by the human pathogen <i>Pseudomonas aeruginosa</i> requires uptake via the IctPQM TRAP transporter
2025-04-01
Abstract excerpt
Pseudomonas aeruginosa PA01 is one of the major causes of disease persistence and mortality in patients with lung pathologies, relying on various host metabolites as carbon and energy sources for growth. The ict-ich-ccl operon ( pa0878, pa0882, pa0883 ) in PAO1 is required for growth on the host molecule itaconate, a C 5 -dicarboxylate. However, it is not known how itaconate is taken up into P. aeruginosa . He...
