Identification of a Two-Component Signal Transduction System from Corynebacterium diphtheriae That Activates Gene Expression in Response to the Presence of Heme and Hemoglobin
Corynebacterium diphtheriae, the causative agent of diphtheria, utilizes various host compounds to acquire iron. The C. diphtheriae hmuO gene encodes a heme oxygenase that is involved in the utilization of heme and hemoglobin as iron sources. Transcription of the hmuO gene in C. diphtheriae is contr...
