A Novel Calcium Uptake Transporter of Uncharacterized P-Type ATPase Family Supplies Calcium for Cell Surface Integrity in Mycobacterium smegmatis

Ca(2+) plays an important role in the physiology of bacteria. Intracellular Ca(2+) concentrations are tightly maintained in the nanomolar range. Molecular mechanisms of Ca(2+) uptake in bacteria remain elusive. Here we show that CtpE is responsible for Ca(2+) uptake in Mycobacterium smegmatis. It re...
