High-Affinity Zn(2+) Uptake System ZnuABC Is Required for Bacterial Zinc Homeostasis in Intracellular Environments and Contributes to the Virulence of Salmonella enterica

To investigate the relevance of zinc in host-pathogen interactions, we have constructed Salmonella enterica mutant strains in which the znuA gene, which encodes the periplasmic component of the ZnuABC high-affinity Zn(2+) transporter, was deleted. This mutation does not alter the ability of Salmonel...
