A heme-binding protein produced by <i>Haemophilus haemolyticus</i> inhibits non-typeable <i>Haemophilus influenzae</i>

Abstract excerpt
Many commensal bacteria and opportunistic pathogens scavenge heme from their environment. Pathogens and host are engaged in an arms race to control access to heme, but similar conflicts between bacterial species that might regulate pathogen colonisation are largely unknown. We show here that a commensal bacterium, Haemophilus haemolyticus , makes hemophilin, a heme-binding protein that not only allows the bacteri...
