The development of a new reporter system to study the interaction between FbpA and FbpBC
… system that involves iron removal from host glycoproteins. The human pathogen, Haemophilus influenzae, has a surface receptor complex containing transferrin binding proteins (TbpA and TbpB). This complex facilitates the release of iron from host transferrin and into the periplasm, where it binds …

Studies of bacterial homeostasis Sinorhizobium meliloti and Escherichia coli
… was disrupted in sitA, which encodes the periplasmic binding protein of the putative iron/manganese ABC transporter SitABCD. Disruption of sitA causes elevated sensitivity to the reactive oxygen species hydrogen peroxide and superoxide. Disruption of sitA leads to elevated catalase …

Functional Evolution of Solute-Binding Proteins
Solute-binding proteins (SBPs) comprise an abundant and adaptable superfamily of extracytoplasmic solute receptors involved in nutrient uptake and chemotaxis, and constitute an important component of the nutrient-scavenging arsenal in bacteria. The SBP superfamily exemplifies the power of evolution …
