Iron Acquisition Mechanisms and Their Role in the Virulence of Burkholderia Species [PDF]
Burkholderia is a genus within the β-Proteobacteriaceae that contains at least 90 validly named species which can be found in a diverse range of environments. A number of pathogenic species occur within the genus.

Biosynthesis of a clickable pyoverdine via in vivo enzyme engineering of an adenylation domain
The engineering of non ribosomal peptide synthetases (NRPS) for new substrate specificity is a potent strategy to incorporate non-canonical amino acids into peptide sequences, thereby creating peptide diversity and broadening applications.

Plant growth–promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) are beneficial soil bacteria that colonize the rhizosphere and enhance plant growth through direct and indirect mechanisms, including nutrient solubilization, phytohormone production, suppression of phytopathogens, and activation of plant defense mechanisms.

Investigation of different methods in siderophore measurement in indigenous Fluorescent Pseudomonads [PDF]
Introduction:Fluorescent pseudomonads produced a variety of siderophores in which the pyoverdine type siderophore is the main one. These bacteria employ siderophores to increase availability of Iron for their own and plants consumption. Siderophores have

The path to re-evolve cooperation is constrained in Pseudomonas aeruginosa
Background A common form of cooperation in bacteria is based on the secretion of beneficial metabolites, shareable as public good among cells within a group.

Fluorescent Pseudomonad Pyoverdines Bind and Oxidize Ferrous Ion [PDF]
ABSTRACT Major pyoverdines from Pseudomonas fluorescens 2-79 (Pf-B), P. aeruginosa ATCC 15692 (Pa-C), and P. putida ATCC 12633 (Pp-C) were examined by absorption and fluorescence spectroscopic techniques to investigate the interaction between ferrous ion and ...

The incorporation of the non‐proteinogenic amino acid ornithine into antibiotic peptides has shown potential in influencing antibacterial efficacy. Novel peptide arginases from cryptic ribosomally synthesized and post‐translationally modified peptide (RiPP) pathways are identified and found to incorporate ornithine residues into various peptide ...

Pyoverdin is essential for virulence of Pseudomonas aeruginosa [PDF]
The role of pyoverdin, the main siderophore in iron-gathering capacity produced by Pseudomonas aeruginosa, in bacterial growth in vivo is controversial, although iron is important for virulence. To determine the ability of pyoverdin to compete for iron with the human iron-binding protein transferrin, wild-type P. aeruginosa ATCC 15692 (PAO1 strain) and

Mining microbial genomes for new natural products and biosynthetic pathways [PDF]
Analyses of microbial genome sequences have revealed numerous examples of ‘cryptic’ or ‘orphan’ biosynthetic gene clusters, with the potential to direct the production of novel, structurally complex natural products.
