Structural properties of a haemophore facilitate targeted elimination of the pathogen porphyromonas gingivalis

HIGHLIGHTS

  • who: Jin-Long Gao from the SchoolThe University of Sydney, Camperdown, NSW, Australia have published the Article: Structural properties of a haemophore facilitate targeted elimination of the pathogen Porphyromonas gingivalis, in the Journal: NATURE COMMUNICATIONS NATURE COMMUNICATIONS
  • what: The authors show that expression of HusA is essential for the intracellular survival of P. gingivalis. Despite the presence of multiple haem uptake systems in P. gingivalis, the work demonstrates a key dependency for survival and growth of the bacteria on expression of HusA under physiological conditions where free iron is scarce. The authors propose that the . . .
