Iron Acquisition Mechanisms and Their Role in the Virulence of Acinetobacter baumannii

Iron is an essential element for survival of most organisms. One mechanism of host defense is to tightly chelate iron to several proteins to limit its extracellular availability. This has forced pathogens such as Acinetobacter baumannii to adapt mechanisms for the acquisition and utilization of iron...
