Once the siderophore-iron complexes are inside the bacteria, the iron is released and utilized for vital cell functions. The iron-free hydroxamate siderophores are commonly re-excreted to bring in an additional iron load (Enterobactin is at least partially degraded by a cytoplasmic esterase This cycle is repeated until specific intracellular ferric uptake regulation proteins (Fur proteins) bind iron, and signal that the intracellular iron level is satisfactory, at -which point ne-w siderophore and siderophore-receptor biosynthesis are halted and the iron-uptake process stops. This intricate feedback mechanism allows a meticulous control over iron(III) uptake and accumulation against an unfavorable concentration gradient so as to maintain the intracellular iron(III) level within the required narrow window. Several excellent reviews concerning siderophore-iron transport mechanisms have been recently published i.3,i6, is,40,45,60-62 ... [Pg.757]

As is pointed out in Chapter 16, the acquisition of iron and control of its concentration is of crucial importance to bacteria. In E. coli the Fe2+-binding protein Fur (ferric uptake regulator) represses promoters controlling siderophore biosynthesis as well as other responses. It is a global regulator that controls 40 transcriptional units.124 Similar proteins repress synthesis of the diphtheria toxin by Corynebac-terium diphtheriae,125 126 uptake of iron in these bacteria and in Mycobacterium tuberculosis,127 and uptake of molybdate.1273... [Pg.1612]

The iron acquisition systems of E. coli and many other bacteria are regulated at the level of RNA transcription by Fur (ferric uptake regulator), a transcriptional repressor that exhibits ferrous iron-dependent, DNA-binding activity. Fur is expressed as a 17 kDa homodimer and, under conditions of iron sufficiency, it binds one iron ion per subunit, which increases its affinity for its preferred DNA binding sites by 1000-fold. ... [Pg.2653]
