FurA contributes to the oxidative stress response regulation of Mycobacterium avium ssp. paratuberculosis

The ferric uptake regulator FurA is known to be involved in iron homeostasis and stress response in many bacteria. In mycobacteria the precise role of FurA is still unclear. In the presented study, we addressed the functional role of FurA in the ruminant pathogen Mycobacterium avium ssp. paratubercu...
