New Insights into Histidine Triad Proteins: Solution Structure of a Streptococcus pneumoniae PhtD Domain and Zinc Transfer to AdcAII

Zinc (Zn(2+)) homeostasis is critical for pathogen host colonization and invasion. Polyhistidine triad (Pht) proteins, located at the surface of various streptococci, have been proposed to be involved in Zn(2+) homeostasis. The phtD gene, coding for a Zn(2+)-binding protein, is organized in an opero...
