Metal specificity and mechanism of regulation by the toxic metal ion sensor S. aureus p1258 CadC /

Staphylococcus aureus pI258 CadC is a metalloregulatory protein from the SmtB/ArsR family that represses the expression of the cad resistance operon. This operon encodes CadC and a Cd(II)/Pb(II)/Bi(III)/Zn(II)-specific efflux ATPase, CadA. To gain insight into metal ion selectivity and allosteric...
