The transcriptional regulator Np20 is the zinc uptake regulator in Pseudomonas aeruginosa.

The transcriptional regulator Np20 is the zinc uptake regulator in Pseudomonas aeruginosa.

Zinc is essential for all bacteria, but excess amounts of the metal can have toxic effects. To address this, bacteria have developed tightly regulated zinc uptake systems, such as the ZnuABC zinc transporter which is regulated by the Fur-like zinc uptake regulator (Zur).
