Mechanisms of goethite dissolution in the presence of desferrioxamine B and Suwannee River fulvic acid at pH 6.5 [PDF]
Siderophores are Fe3+ specific low MW chelating ligands secreted by microorganisms in response to Fe stress. Low MW organic acids such as oxalate have been shown to enhance siderophore mediated dissolution of Fe3+ oxides.

Evolution of rhizobial siderophore utilization via accessory xeno-siderophore receptors and flexible intake machinery for self-produced siderophores. [PDF]
Abstract Bradyrhizobium and Sinorhizobium are dominant soybean microsymbionts in acidic/neutral and alkaline soils, respectively. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying this pH-dependent adaptation remain elusive. In this study, phylogenomic analysis of 286 Bradyrhizobium and 322 Sinorhizobium genomes revealed that ...

Biosynthesis Pathways, Transport Mechanisms and Biotechnological Applications of Fungal Siderophores
Iron (Fe) is the fourth most abundant element on earth and represents an essential nutrient for life. As a fundamental mineral element for cell growth and development, iron is available for uptake as ferric ions, which are usually oxidized into complex ...

A differential genome-wide transcriptome analysis : impact of cellular copper on complex biological processes like aging and development [PDF]
The regulation of cellular copper homeostasis is crucial in biology. Impairments lead to severe dysfunctions and are known to affect aging and development.

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 ...

Cyanobacterial Siderophores—Physiology, Structure, Biosynthesis, and Applications
Siderophores are low-molecular-weight metal chelators that function in microbial iron uptake. As iron limits primary productivity in many environments, siderophores are of great ecological importance.

Siderophores: More than Stealing Iron
Siderophores are small molecular iron chelators that are produced by microbes and whose most notable function is to sequester iron from the host and provide this essential metal nutrient to microbes.
