Interplay between Porphyromonas gingivalis Hemophore-Like Protein HmuY and Kgp/RgpA Gingipains Plays a Superior Role in Heme Supply
To acquire heme as a source of iron and protoporphyrin IX, Porphyromonas gingivalis uses gingipains, Hmu, and Hus systems. The aim of this study was to assess the correlation between the production and function of the most important virulence factors of P. gingivalis involved in heme supply, namely,...
