Identification of TbpA Residues Required for Transferrin-Iron Utilization by Neisseria gonorrhoeae

Neisseria gonorrhoeae requires iron for survival in the human host and therefore expresses high-affinity receptors for iron acquisition from host iron-binding proteins. The gonococcal transferrin-iron uptake system is composed of two transferrin binding proteins, TbpA and TbpB. TbpA is a TonB-depend...
