The Role of Fur in the Transcriptional and Iron Homeostatic Response of Enterococcus faecalis

The Role of Fur in the Transcriptional and Iron Homeostatic Response of Enterococcus faecalis

The ferric uptake regulator (Fur) plays a major role in controlling the expression of iron homeostasis genes in bacterial organisms. In this work, we fully characterized the capacity of Fur to reconfigure the global transcriptional network and influence iron homeostasis in Enterococcus faecalis. The...
