Selection and characterization of siderophores of pathogenic Escherichia coli intestinal and extraintestinal isolates

open access: yesOpen Agriculture, 2021
Microorganisms adopt a unique mechanism for sequestration and transport of bound iron by producing iron-chelating molecules called siderophores. Siderophores play an important role in colonization of microbes in iron-deficient sites of the host, hence ...

Metabolically versatile psychrotolerant Antarctic bacterium Pseudomonas sp. ANT_H12B is an efficient producer of siderophores and accompanying metabolites (SAM) useful for agricultural purposes

open access: yesMicrobial Cell Factories, 2023
Background Bacterial siderophores are chelating compounds with the potential of application in agriculture, due to their plant growth-promoting (PGP) properties, however, high production and purification costs are limiting factors for their wider ...

Bacterial Siderophores: Structure, Functions, and Role in the Pathogenesis of Infections

open access: yesПроблемы особо опасных инфекций, 2022
This review systematizes and analyzes the data published over the past decade, devoted to the study of low-molecular-weight high affinity iron chelators – siderophores.

Assay of Serum Iron and TIBC: A Preliminary Study for Survey Shortlisting Suspected Tuberculosis Patients [PDF]

open access: yesIndian Journal of Medical Biochemistry, 2023
Aim: Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) growing within the phagosome of macrophases secretes siderophores, a small molecule having a high affinity for Fe+3 iron, to take up iron-loaded mycobactin (MBT) and carboxymycobactin (CMBT) from the environment to ...

Role of catecholate siderophores in gram-negative bacterial colonization of the mouse gut [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
We investigated the importance of the production of catecholate siderophores, and the utilization of their iron (III) complexes, to colonization of the mouse intestinal tract by Escherichia coli.

Biosynthesis Pathways, Transport Mechanisms and Biotechnological Applications of Fungal Siderophores

open access: yesJournal of Fungi, 2021
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 ...

Competitive Interactions Between Microbial Siderophores and Humic-Like Binding Sites in European Shelf Sea Waters

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2022
Siderophores are low molecular weight high affinity iron chelates found at low concentrations in seawater. In this study we determined the total concentrations and identities of siderophores in extracts isolated from a shelf sea environment on the ...

C-diazeniumdiolate siderophores: structures, photoreactivity, and biosynthesis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
Iron is essential to nearly all forms of life, but is predominantly insoluble under aerobic conditions at physiological pH, reducing its bioavailability.

Siderophores and iron transport

open access: yes, 2023
Siderophores are low-molecular-weight organic compounds produced by bacteria and fungi for Fe(III) supply. Bacteria and fungi biosynthesize siderophores in response to low iron, which are released into the local environment to sequester Fe(III) to form a
