Nitric Oxide Disrupts Zinc Homeostasis in <named-content content-type="genus-species">Salmonella enterica</named-content> Serovar Typhimurium
ABSTRACT Nitric oxide (NO·) produced by mammalian cells exerts antimicrobial actions that result primarily from the modification of protein thiols (S-nitrosylation) and metal centers. A comprehensive approach was used to identify novel targets of NO· in Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium (S. Ty...
