High-Field EPR Spectroscopic Characterization of Mn(II) Bound to the Bacterial Solute-Binding Proteins MntC and PsaA
During infection, the bacterial pathogens Staphylococcus aureus and Streptococcus pneumoniae employ ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters to acquire Mn(II), an essential nutrient, from the host environment. Staphylococcal MntABC and streptococcal PsaABC attract the attention of the biophysical and...
