Specialized membrane proteins that import nickel into bacterial cells, supplying the essential cofactor for virulence enzymes including urease, NiFe-hydrogenase, and Ni-glyoxalase. Because mammals produce no known nickel-requiring proteins, these transporters represent …
The outer membrane (OM) is the defining structural feature of Gram-negative bacteria, providing a permeability barrier that profoundly influences metal acquisition, antibiotic resistance, immune activation, and virulence. For the microbiome-metal axis, the outer membran…
