Replication of Neisseria meningitidis within Epithelial Cells Requires TonB-Dependent Acquisition of Host Cell Iron

Neisseria meningitidis (meningococcus [MC]) is able to enter and replicate within epithelial cells. Iron, an essential nutrient for nearly all organisms, is an important determinant in the ability of MC to cause disease; however, its role in MC intracellular replication has not been investigated. We...
