Characterization and Expression of HmuR, a TonB-Dependent Hemoglobin Receptor of Porphyromonas gingivalis

The gram-negative pathogen Porphyromonas gingivalis requires hemin for growth. Hemoglobin bound to haptoglobin and hemin complexed to hemopexin can be used as heme sources, indicating that P. gingivalis must have a means to remove the hemin from these host iron-binding proteins. However, the specifi...
