The FeoC protein leads to high cellular levels of the Fe (II) transporter FeoB by preventing FtsH protease regulation of FeoB in Salmonella enterica

H Kim, H Lee, D Shin - Journal of bacteriology, 2013 - Am Soc Microbiol
In the gammaproteobacteria, the FeoA, FeoB, and FeoC proteins constitute the Feo system,
