Under iron-deficient conditions Stemphylium botryosum f. sp. lycopersici produces three major siderophores; dimerum acid, coprogen B and an unidentified monohydroxamate siderophore designated as A. The system of siderophores mediating uptake of iron was characterized. It exhibits active transport, saturation kinetics and an optimum at pH 6 and 30°. The rate of iron uptake via dimerum acid and coprogen B was four times higher than siderophore A. S. botryosum was capable of taking up iron from hydroxamate siderophores produced by other fungi, e.g. ferrichrome, fusigen, rhodotorulic acid but not ferrioxamine B. Double labelling experiments suggest that ferric coprogen B accumulates in mycelial cells as an intact chelate.  相似文献

Several derivatives of the coprogen and ferrichrysin classes of siderophores were synthesized as potential affinity labels of the iron uptake system inNeurospora crassa. While only one of these compounds has proved useful as an affinity label, all were recognized and transported byNeurospora crassa. One derivative, chloroacetyl-ferrichrysin, proved to be an unexpectedly potent reversible inhibitor (K 1=0.4 M) of both ferrichrysin and coprogen uptake, similar to the natural siderophore, ferrirubin. The reported results provide further understanding of the steric and electronic requirements of siderophores for the iron uptake system inNeurospora crassa.Abbreviations amu atomic mass units - DMF dimethylformamide - FAB tast atom bombardment - NMR nuclear magnetic resonance - ppm parts per million - tlc thin layer chromatography  相似文献

Gliocladium virens (ATCC 24290) produces two monohydroxamates (cis- and trans-fusarinine) and a dihydroxamate (dimerum acid) as the major siderophores in the culture filtrate. This fungus also produces minor quantities of three trihydroxamates (the deferri forms of ferricrocin, coprogen B, and coprogen). Structural features of the free ligands and the metal complexed forms of cis-fusarinine (cF), trans-fusarinine (tF), and dimerum acid (DA) have been investigated using electronic (visible), circular dichroism (CD), and NMR spectroscopy. In aqueous solution, in the pH range of 6.5-8.0, all of the ferric complexes of cF (and tF) exist as 3:1 chelates. Fe(cF)3 [or Fe(tF)3] forms both lambda and delta coordination isomers, but the former in a slight excess. DA forms a 3:2 ferric complex in the pH range of 5.0-8.0. Iron coordination in Fe2(DA)3 is predominantly delta. DA ligands in Ga2(DA)3 exist as two different conformers at a ratio of 2:1. In mixed solution cF, tF, and DA form a large number of homogeneous and heterogeneous Fe(III) chelates.  相似文献

Summary The plant pathogenic hyphomyceteBotrytis cinerea has been shown to produce several trihydroxamate siderophores under conditions of low-iron stress. The total siderophores amounted to approximately 30 mg/l culture filtrate after 5 days of incubation in an asparagine/salt/glucose medium. Thin-layer chromatography (TLC) and high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) on a reversed phase indicated that ferrirhodin is the predominant siderophore of this fungus. Chemical characterization of the principal siderophore by fast-atom-bombardment (FAB) mass spectrometry, nuclear magnetic resonance (1H-NMR,13C-NMR) and comparison with a reference revealed the identity with ferrirhodin. NMR studies performed on desferrirhodin (desferrirhodin) in dimethylsulfoxide and water revealed the existence of two conformers in D2O resulting from acis-trans isomerization of the hydroxamic acid groups. Comparative iron-uptake studies showed the following order of uptake inB. cinerea: ferrichrysin (100%), ferrirubin (57%), ferrirhodin (45%), hexahydroferrirhodin (45%), coprogen 6%. Concentration-dependent uptake of ferrirhodin resulted in saturation kinetics only in the low concentration range of 0–30 M (K m = 2.5 M,V max = 80 pmol min–1 mg(–1). A non-saturable, linear uptake was observed in the high concentration range of 30–80 M. The low concentration range appears to be the physiologically significant range, where siderophore-mediated iron transport inB. cinerea occurs.  相似文献

Summary Linear hydroxamate derivatives, possessing chiral -amino acid moieties, were synthesized and their iron transport activities were studied in bacteria and fungi. No growth-promoting activity could be detected in the Gram-positive hydroxamate-auxotrophAureobacterium flavescens JG9. However, Gram-negative enterobacteria, such asEscherichia coli, Pantoea agglomerans andHafnia alvei were able to utilize iron from these analogues. Uptake of55Fe-labeled analogues was inhibited by sodium azide, suggesting an active transport process. The receptors involved during uptake in enterobacteria were identified by using appropriate indicator organisms which are defective in the transport of either ferrioxamines (P. agglomerans FM13), coprogens (H. alvei), or both of these siderophore classes (E. coli fhuE). Our data suggest that the chiral hydroxamates are recognized by the ferrioxamine receptor (FoxA) and the coprogen receptor (FhuE) at a ratio which depends on the optical/ isomer fraction and the nature of side chains. Transport was also observed in the fungusNeurospora crassa, known to take up coprogen rather than ferrioxamines, suggesting that in this fungus the synthetic analogues behave like coprogen.  相似文献

Aims: As a toxic metal, cadmium (Cd) affects microbial and plant metabolic processes, thereby potentially reducing the efficiency of microbe or plant‐mediated remediation of Cd‐polluted soil. The role of siderophores produced by Streptomyces tendae F4 in the uptake of Cd by bacteria and plant was investigated to gain insight into the influence of siderophores on Cd availability to micro‐organisms and plants. Methods and Results: The bacterium was cultured under siderophore‐inducing conditions in the presence of Cd. The kinetics of siderophore production and identification of the siderophores and their metal‐bound forms were performed using electrospray ionization mass spectrometry. Inductively coupled plasma spectroscopy was used to measure iron (Fe) and Cd contents in the bacterium and in sunflower plant grown in Cd‐amended soil. Siderophores significantly reduced the Cd uptake by the bacterium, while supplying it with iron. Bacterial culture filtrates containing three hydroxamate siderophores secreted by S. tendae F4 significantly promoted plant growth and enhanced uptake of Cd and Fe by the plant, relative to the control. Furthermore, application of siderophores caused slightly more Cd, but similar Fe uptake, compared with EDTA. Bioinoculation with Streptomyces caused a dramatic increase in plant Fe content, but resulted only in slight increase in plant Cd content. Conclusion: It is concluded that siderophores can help reduce toxic metal uptake in bacteria, while simultaneously facilitating the uptake of such metals by plants. Also, EDTA is not superior to hydroxamate siderophores in terms of metal solubilization for plant uptake. Significance and Impact of the Study: The study showed that microbial processes could indirectly influence the availability and amount of toxic metals taken up from the rhizosphere of plants. Furthermore, although EDTA is used for chelator‐enhanced phytoremediation, microbial siderophores would be ideal for this purpose.  相似文献

Different derivatives of coprogen B (desacetyl coprogen) and coprogen were prepared to study their iron transport properties in Neurospora crassa arg-5, ota, aga. With increasing N-acyl chain length the rates of iron chelate uptake could significantly be enhanced in the order N-acetyl-Neurospora crassa. The results suggest that the coprogen molecule requires a special hydrophobic area for optimal orientation during uptake and iron release.134. Mitteilung: Hasenböhler, A., Kneifel, H., König, W.

Utilization of microbial siderophores in iron acquisition by oat   总被引:9,自引:3,他引:6       下载免费PDF全文
Iron uptake by oat (Avena sativa cv Victory) was examined under hydroponic chemical conditions that required direct utilization of microbial siderophores for iron transport. Measurements of iron uptake rates by excised roots from the hydroxamate siderophores, ferrichrome, ferrichrome A, coprogen, ferrioxamine B (FOB), and rhodotorulic acid (RA) showed all five of the siderophores supplied iron, but that FOB and RA were preferentially utilized. FOB-mediated iron uptake increased four-fold when roots were preconditioned to iron stress and involved an active, iron-stress induced transport system that was inhibited by 5 millimolar sodium azide or 0.5 millimolar dinitrophenol. Kinetic studies indicated partial saturation with an apparent Km of 5 micromolar when FOB was supplied at 0.1 to 50 micromolar concentrations. Whole plant experiments confirmed that 5 micromolar FOB was sufficient for plant growth. Siderophore-mediated iron transport was inhibited by Cr-ferrichrome, an analog of ferrated siderophore. Our results confirm the existence of a microbial siderophore iron transport system in oat which functions within the physiological concentrations produced and used by soil microorganisms.  相似文献

Siderophore-mediated iron handling is crucial for the virulence of Aspergillus fumigatus. Here we identified a new component of its siderophore metabolism, termed SidJ, which is encoded by AFUA_3G03390. The encoding gene is localized in a siderophore biosynthetic gene cluster that is conserved in a variety of fungi. During iron starvation, SidJ deficiency resulted in decreased growth and increased intracellular accumulation of hydrolysis products of the siderophore fusarinine C. The implied role in siderophore hydrolysis is consistent with a putative esterase domain in SidJ, which now represents the first functionally characterized member of the DUF1749 (domain of unknown function) protein family, with members found exclusively in fungi and plants.  相似文献

Summary Three novel siderophores have been isolated from a highly pathogenic strain ofAlternaria longipes (ATCC 26293). The compounds are N -dimethylated analogs of coprogen, neocoprogen I and isoneocoprogen I. Structures of the compounds have been determined by1H- and13C-NMR, fast-atom-bombardment (FAB) mass spectroscopy and partial hydrolysis. One of the new compounds, N -dimethylcoprogen, is also produced, as the major siderophore, in another fungus,Fusarium dimerum.  相似文献

A new siderophore named vulnibactin has been isolated from low iron cultures of Vibrio vulnificus, a human pathogen. The structure was established as N-[3-(2,3-dihydroxybenzamido)propyl]-1,3-bis[2-(2-hydroxyphenyl)-trans-5-methyl-2-oxazoline-4-carboxamido]propane by a combination of acid hydrolysis, nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy and positive fast atom bombardment mass spectrometry. Vulnibactin is characterized as containing one residue of 2,3-dihydroxybenzoic acid as well as two residues of salicylic acid, both of which are involved in the formation of oxazoline rings with l-threonine bound to a norspermidine backbone. In addition, two other compounds with siderophore activity were purified and their structures were also determined. These two compounds provided further support for the structure of vulnibactin.  相似文献

Iron uptake in pseudorevertants of Escherichia coli K-12 strains which lack the ability to synthesize enterochelin, 2,3-dihydroxybenzoate, and the ferrienterochelin receptor protein was characterized. In four independent pseudorevertants, the suppressor mutations which permitted growth in iron-poor environments appeared to be located in ompB, the regulatory locus for the porin proteins. Unlike wild-type cells, the pseudorevertants were unable to utilize ferrienterochelin and could acquire iron from citrate without induction by prior growth in citrate. The energy requirements of the pseudorevertant system appeared to be identical to those of the enterochelin system. Evidence that loss of the porin proteins results in the secretion by the pseudorevertants of a molecule with siderophore activity is presented; this siderophore is able to remove iron from the non-biological iron chelators nitrilotriacetic acid and , -dipyridyl but not from the siderophores ferrichrome and enterochelin.  相似文献

Reduction and transport of Fe from siderophores   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
Soils contain siderophores produced by bacteria and fungi; however, the role of siderophores in Fe nutrition of plants is uncertain. The Strategy I plant cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) was used in an investigation of ferric chelate reduction activity and uptake and transport of Fe from ferric hydroxyethylethylenetriacetic acid (FeHEDTA) and ferric N,N–di–(2–hydroxybenzoyl)–ethylenediamine– N,N-diacetic acid (FeHBED) and the hydroxamate siderophores, ferric rhodotorulic acid (FeRA) and ferric ferrioxime B (FeFOB). Cucumber seedlings were grown in a hydroponic medium without Fe or supplied with 10 M FeHEDTA. Iron-deficient cucumber roots readily reduced FeHEDTA, while Fe-sufficient roots had low levels of ferric chelate reduction activity. The siderophore FeRA was reduced by Fe-deficient roots at 8% of the rate of FeHEDTA, while FeFOB was not reduced. The highly stable synthetic chelate FeHBED was reduced at 16% the rate of FeHEDTA. Fe transport to shoots by Fe-deficient seedlings from the slowly reducible complexes 59FeRA and 59FeHBED was, respectively, 74% and 73% of that transported from 59FeHEDTA. The ferrous complexing agent, bathophenanthrolinedisulfonic acid (BPDS), had a strong inhibitory effect on uptake and transport of Fe from 59FeHEDTA or 59FeRA into shoots. An average of 11% as much Fe was transported to shoots of Fe-deficient seedlings from 59FeFOB as from 59FeHEDTA. Neither the Fe nutritional status of the seedlings nor the presence of BPDS influenced the uptake and transport of Fe from 59FeFOB. It is concluded that cucumber roots may take up substantial amounts of Fe from FeRA and FeHBED following reduction, while small amounts of Fe may be taken up from FeFOB by a mechanism not involving reduction of the ferric siderophore at the root surface.  相似文献

Summary Geotrichum candidum is capable of utilizing iron from hydroxamate siderophores of different structural classes. The relative rates of iron transport for ferrichrome, ferrichrysin, ferrioxamine B, fusigen, ferrichrome A, rhodotorulic acid, coprogen B, dimerium acid and ferrirhodin were 100%, 98%, 74%, 59%, 49%, 35%, 24%, 12% and 11% respectively. Ferrichrome, ferrichrysine and ferrichrome A inhibited [59Fe]ferrioxamine-B-mediated iron transport by 71%, 68% and 28% respectively when added at equimolar concentrations to the radioactive complex. The inhibitory mechanism of [59Fe]ferrioxamine B uptake by ferrichrome was non-competitive (K i 2.4 M), suggesting that the two siderophores do not share a common transport system. Uptake of [59Fe]ferrichrome, [59Fe]rhodotorulic acid and [59Fe]fusigen was unaffected by competition with the other two siderophores or with ferrioxamine B. Thus,G. candidum may possess independent transport systems for siderophores of different structural classes. The uptake rates of [14C]ferrioxamine B and67Ga-desferrioxamine B were 30% and 60% respectively, as compared to [59Fe]ferrioxamine B. The specific ferrous chelates, dipyridyl and ferrozine at 6 mM, caused 65% and 35% inhibition of [59Fe]ferrioxamine uptake. From these results we conclude that, although about 70% of the iron is apparently removed from the complex by reduction prior to being transported across the cellular membrane, a significant portion of the chelated ligand may enter the cell intact. The former and latter mechanisms seem not to be mutually exclusive.  相似文献

Summary Under conditions of iron-deprivationHafnia alvei (Enterobacteriaceae) produces ferrioxamine G as the principal siderophore. Maximum hydroxamate siderophore production occurred at medium iron limitation. The ferrioxamines were extracted, purified by gel filtration and chromatography on silica gel yielding a major and a minor siderophore fraction. The minor siderophore fraction contained three siderophores, among which ferrioxamine E could be identified by HPLC and FAB mass spectrometry. Reductive hydrolysis of the ferrioxamine G fraction yielded succinic acid and a mixture of diaminopentane and diaminobutane, as determined by gas-liquid chromatography and GLC/MS. HPLC and FAB mass spectrometry confirmed that the ferrioxamine G fraction consisted of two different species, G1 and G2, possessing molecular masses of 671 Da and 658 Da respectively.  相似文献

Cyanobacteria vary in their ability to grow in media contaning low amounts of biologically available iron. Some strains, such as Oscillatoria tenuis, are well adapted to thrive in low-iron environments. We investigated the mechanism of iron scavenging in O. tenuis and found that this cyanobacterium has a siderophore-mediated iron transport system that differs significantly from the traditional hydroxamate-siderophore transport system reported from other cyanobacteria. Unlike other cyanobacteria, this strain produces two types of siderophores, a hydroxamate-type siderophore and a catechol-type siderophore. Production of these two siderophores is expressed at two different iron levels in the medium, suggesting two different iron regulated uptake systems. We compared the production of each siderophore with the growth rate of the culture and found that the production of the catechol siderophore enhances the growth rate of the cyanobacterium, whereas the cells maintain lower than maximal growth rates when only the hydroxamate-type siderophore is being produced.Abbreviation EDDA ethylene diamine di-(o-hydroxyphenylacetic acid)  相似文献

Summary Several strains of the enterobacterial groupErwinia herbicola (Enterobacter agglomerans) were screened for siderophore production. After 3 days of growth in a low-iron medium, all strains studied produced hydroxamate siderophores. The retention values of the main siderophore during thin-layer chromatography on silica gel plates and on HPLC reversed-phase columns were identical with those of an authentic sample of ferrioxamine E (norcardamine). Gas-chromatographic analysis of the HI hydrolyzate yielded succinic acid and 1,5-diaminopentane in equimolar amounts; fast-atom-bombardment (FAB) mass spectroscopy showed a molecular mass of 653 Da. Iron from55Fe-labelled ferrioxamine E was well taken up by iron-starved cells ofE. herbicola (K m=0.1 M,V max=8 pmol mg–1 min–1). However, besides ferrioxamine E (100%), several exogenous siderophores such as enterobactin (94.5%), ferric citrate (78.5%), coprogen (63.5%) and ferrichrome (17.5%) served as siderophores, suggesting the presence of multiple siderophore receptors in the outer membrane ofE. herbicola.  相似文献

The photoreactivep-azidobenzoyl analog of ferrioxamine B was used to show that ferrioxamine-B-mediated iron transport is separate and distinct from coprogen-mediated iron transport inEscherichia coli. Photolysis of this analog inhibited uptake of [59Fe]ferrioxamine B but not [59Fe]coprogen or [59Fe]ferrichrome. Conversely, photolysis of thep-azidobenzoyl analog of coprogen B inhibited uptake of [59Fe]coprogen but not [59Fe]ferrioxamine B or [59Fe]ferrichrome. Photolabeling of outer membranes withp-azidobenzoyl-[59Fe]ferrioxamine B resulted in the labeling of two iron-regulated peptides with molecular masses of about 66 and 26 kDa. Expression of these peptides was increased when ferrioxamine B was the sole iron source. Both peptides were present in outer membrane preparations of thefhuF mutant H1717, but the 66 kDa peptide was not inducible. These results are evidence for an outer membrane receptor inE. coli unique for linear ferrioxamines.  相似文献

Summary Low concentrations of nalidixic acid and oxolinic acid that were just inhibitory toAzotobacter vinelandii growth promoted the production of the catechol siderophores azotochelin and aminochelin, in the presence of normally repressive concentrations of Fe3+. There was a limited effect on the pyoverdin siderophore, azotobactin, where low concentrations of Fe3+ were rendered less repressive, but the repression by higher concentrations of Fe3+ was normal. These drugs did not induce high-molecular-mass iron-repressible outer-membrane proteins and similar effects on the regulation of catechol siderophore synthesis were not produced by novobiocin, coumermycin, or ethidium bromide. The timing of nalidixic acid and Fe3+ addition to iron-limited cells was critical. Nalidixic acid had to be added before iron-repression of catechol siderophore synthesis and before the onset of iron-sufficient growth. Continued production of the catechol siderophores, however, was not due to interference with normal iron uptake. These data indicated that nalidixic acid prevented normal iron-repression of catechol siderophore synthesis but could not reverse iron repression once it had ocurred. The possible roles of DNA gyrase activity in the regulation of catechol siderophore synthesis is discussed.  相似文献
