Evaluating the contribution of a metal independent aldolase to resisting nutritional immunity
… response. One aspect of this defense, known as nutritional immunity, is the sequestration of the essential metals manganese and zinc. An important component of this defense is the metal binding host protein calprotectin, which inactivates metal- dependent bacterial enzymes. The ability of …

Elucidating the mechanisms by which the human pathogen staphylococcus aureus resists host-imposed zinc starvation
… pathogens from obtaining them, a process termed nutritional immunity. In response, bacterial pathogens such as Staphylococcus aureus have evolved mechanisms to overcome this starvation. One common mechanism bacteria employ to evade this defense is expression of high-affinity transporters. …

Investigation of the Immunogenicity and Specificity of the Transferrin Binding Proteins from Bovine Pathogenic Bacteria
Through trying to survive and proliferate within their hosts, pathogens have developed creative mechanisms of acquiring iron. A nutrient required for survival by most organisms, iron is both highly sought and jealously guarded. Hosts sequester iron using iron-binding proteins. These iron sinks keep …
