HutZ is required for biofilm formation and contributes to the pathogenicity of Edwardsiella piscicida
Abstract Edwardsiella piscicida is a severe fish pathogen. Haem utilization systems play an important role in bacterial adversity adaptation and pathogenicity. In this study, a speculative haem utilization protein, HutZEp, was characterized in E. piscicida. hutZ Ep is encoded with two other genes, h...
