英文摘要The gene encoding the Edwardsiella tarda ferric uptake regulator (Fur(Et)) was cloned from a pathogenic E. tarda strain isolated from diseased fish. Fur(Et) shares 90% overall sequence identity with the Escherichia coli Fur (Fur(Ec)) and was able to complement the mutant phenotype of a fur(Ec)-defective E. coli strain. Mutational analysis indicated that C92S and C95S mutations inactivated Fur(Et) whereas E112K mutation resulted in a superactive Fur(Et) variant. Fur(Et) negatively regulated its own expression; interruption of this regulation impaired bacterial growth, altered the production of certain outer membrane proteins, and attenuated bacterial virulence.; The gene encoding the Edwardsiella tarda ferric uptake regulator (Fur(Et)) was cloned from a pathogenic E. tarda strain isolated from diseased fish.
