Co(2+)-dependent gene expression in Streptococcus pneumoniae: opposite effect of Mn(2+) and Co(2+) on the expression of the virulence genes psaBCA, pcpA, and prtA

Manganese (Mn(2+))-, zinc (Zn(2+))- and copper (Cu(2+)) play significant roles in transcriptional gene regulation, physiology, and virulence of Streptococcus pneumoniae. So far, the effect of the important transition metal ion cobalt (Co(2+)) on gene expression of S. pneumoniae has not yet been expl...
