Coordinated adaptation of Staphylococcus aureus to calprotectin-dependent metal sequestration

ABSTRACT The host protein calprotectin inhibits the growth of a variety of bacterial pathogens through metal sequestration in a process known as “nutritional immunity.” Staphylococcus aureus growth is inhibited by calprotectin in vitro, and calprotectin is localized in vivo to staphylococcal abscess...
