The Siderophore Metabolome of Azotobacter vinelandii [PDF]
ABSTRACT In this study, we performed a detailed characterization of the siderophore metabolome, or “chelome,” of the agriculturally important and widely studied model organism Azotobacter vinelandii . Using a new high-resolution liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) approach, we found over 35 ...

Functional Plasticity of Microbial Siderophores in Iron- and Boron-Rich Niches
Siderophores are high-affinity iron-chelating metabolites that underpin microbial survival in iron-limited environments and play central roles in metal homeostasis, ecological competition, and pathogenesis.

ABSTRACT Photobacteriosis is a major threat to marine aquaculture, and the siderophore transporter FrpA represents a promising target for effective subunit vaccine development. In this study, we evaluated Montanide GEL 02 PR and phosphatidylcholine‐based liposomes as aqueous and safer alternatives to Freund's adjuvant for an FrpA‐based subunit vaccine ...

The Role of Iron and Siderophores in Infection, and the Development of Siderophore Antibiotics
AbstractIron is an essential nutrient for bacterial growth, replication, and metabolism. Humans store iron bound to various proteins such as hemoglobin, haptoglobin, transferrin, ferritin, and lactoferrin, limiting the availability of free iron for pathogenic bacteria.

ABSTRACT Outbreaks of vibriosis caused by Vibrio anguillarum are a persistent constraint on rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) aquaculture. However, information on the population structure of field strains in Turkey has been lacking. Here, we report the first systematic serotypic, proteomic, and genomic characterization of 23 V.

Distribution and Cycling of Siderophores in the Eastern North and Tropical Pacific Oceans
Most iron (Fe) dissolved in seawater is complexed to organic ligands of unknown composition. Here we investigate the distribution of siderophores, small organic compounds synthesized by microbes to bind environmental Fe and facilitate its transport into ...

Siderophore production in Botryosphaeriaceae fungi associated with grapevine trunk diseases
Fungi from the Botryosphaeriaceae are recognized as causal agents of dieback diseases in a variety of economically important woody plants, including grapevine. Some species produce secondary metabolites that may function as virulent factors.

ABSTRACT Aquaculture systems suffer a wide range of losses, mostly due to bacterial disease outbreaks, and the use of disinfectants is a routine practice for controlling the spread of pathogenic organisms globally. Including Aeromonas hydrophila, Streptococcus agalactiae and Edwardsiella tarda, implicated for natural disease outbreaks and economic ...

Siderophores as tools and treatments
AbstractIn the search for iron, an essential element in many biochemical processes, microorganisms biosynthesise dedicated chelators, known as siderophores, to sequester iron from their environment and actively transport the siderophore complex into the cell.
