Contribution of a ZIP‐family protein to manganese uptake and infective endocarditis virulence in Streptococcus sanguinis

Streptococcus sanguinis is an important cause of infective endocarditis. In strain SK36, the ABC‐family manganese transporter, SsaACB, is essential for virulence. We have now identified a ZIP‐family protein, TmpA, as a secondary manganese transporter. A tmpA mutant had no phenotype, but a ΔssaACB Δt...
