Invasion of Ureaplasma diversum in Hep-2 cells.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Nitric oxide (NO) is produced as part of the host immune response to bacterial infections, including urinary tract infections. The enzyme flavohemoglobin, coded by the hmp gene, is involved in protecting bacterial cells from the toxic effects of NO and represents a potentially interesting target for developm...
