Copper primes adaptation of uropathogenic Escherichia coli to superoxide stress by activating superoxide dismutases

Copper and superoxide are used by the phagocytes to kill bacteria. Copper is a host effector encountered by uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC) during urinary tract infection in a non-human primate model, and in humans. UPEC is exposed to higher levels of copper in the gut prior to entering the ur...
