AdcAII of Streptococcus pneumoniae Affects Pneumococcal Invasiveness.

AdcAII of Streptococcus pneumoniae Affects Pneumococcal Invasiveness.

Across bacterial species, metal binding proteins can serve functions in pathogenesis in addition to regulating metal homeostasis. We have compared and contrasted the activities of zinc (Zn2+)-binding lipoproteins AdcA and AdcAII in the Streptococcus pneumoniae TIGR4 background. Exposure to Zn2+-limi...
