Characterization of a heme-degrading enzyme that mediates fitness and pathogenicity in Enterococcus faecalis
ABSTRACT Enterococcus faecalis, a gut commensal, is a leading cause of opportunistic infections. Its virulence is linked to its ability to thrive in hostile environments, which includes host-imposed metal starvation. We recently showed that E. faecalis evades iron starvation using five dedicated tra...
