Iron sequestering agents

To cope with their need for iron, microorganisms possess remarkably sophisticated mechanisms to scavenge iron from its plentiful, yet biologically inaccessible, environmental sources. Among the various mechanisms for iron uptake the most general is the use of iron sequestering agents. [Pg.756]

Recently the naturally occurring powerful iron sequestering agent enterobactin has provided a model for the development of ligands which show high formation constants with Ga3+ and... [Pg.971]

Enterobactin (87) is a 12-membered ring macrotriolide initially isolated from Salmonella typhimurium [110]. It is involved in microbial transport and metabolism of iron. It is an iron-sequestering agent of the phenolate group and is overproduced by Escherichia coli and related enteric bacteria under low-iron stress. [Pg.25]
