A critical facet of mammalian innate immunity involves the hosts’ attempts to sequester and/or limit the availability of key metabolic products from pathogens. For example, nutritional immunity encompasses host approaches to limit the availability of key heavy metal ions such as zinc and iron. Previously, we identified several hundred genes in a multidrug-resistant isolate of Acinetobacter baumannii that are required for growth and/or survival in the Galleria mellonella infection model.
