Maintenance of Microbial Cooperation Mediated by Public Goods in Single- and Multiple-Trait Scenarios [PDF]
Microbes often form densely populated communities, which favor competitive and cooperative interactions. Cooperation among bacteria often occurs through the production of metabolically costly molecules produced by certain individuals that become ...

Molecular Detection of Siderophore Genes in Escherichia coli Among Iraqi Strains
Background: Bacteria can\'t grow without iron (Fe), and the majority of them actively seek out Fe ions via specialized proteins called siderophores.

Mammalian Siderophores, Siderophore-binding Lipocalins, and the Labile Iron Pool [PDF]
Bacteria use tight-binding, ferric-specific chelators called siderophores to acquire iron from the environment and from the host during infection; animals use proteins such as transferrin and ferritin to transport and store iron. Recently, candidate compounds that could serve endogenously as mammalian siderophore equivalents have been identified and ...

Synopsis. The [68Ga]GaIII‐TREN‐CAM radiochelate selectively accumulates in Gram‐negative sites of infection and noninvasively monitors treatment response a siderophore antibiotic. ABSTRACT Positron emission tomography (PET) is an emerging tool under clinical investigation for the detection of bacterial infections.

The design and synthesis of an antibacterial phenothiazine–siderophore conjugate
Siderophore–antibiotic conjugates consist of an antibiotic covalently linked by a tether to a siderophore. Such conjugates can demonstrate enhanced uptake and internalisation to the bacterial cell resulting in significantly reduced MIC values and ...

Marine yeast isolation and industrial application [PDF]
Over the last century, terrestrial yeasts have been widely used in various industries, such as baking, brewing, wine, bioethanol and pharmaceutical protein production. However, only little attention has been given to marine yeasts. Recent research showed

Gram-positive siderophore-shuttle with iron-exchange from Fe-siderophore to apo-siderophore by Bacillus cereus YxeB [PDF]
Small molecule iron-chelators, siderophores, are very important in facilitating the acquisition of Fe(III), an essential element for pathogenic bacteria. Many Gram-negative outer-membrane transporters and Gram-positive lipoprotein siderophore-binding proteins have been characterized, and the binding ability of outer-membrane transporters ...
