Siderophores are low-molecular-chelating chemical compounds specific to iron ions that are
produced by bacteria, fungi, cyanobacteria, and plants (phytosiderophores) growing at a low …

Among the extracellular secondary metabolites, microbial iron-chelating compounds, also
called siderophores, have received considerable attention. The ecological interest in these …

Iron (III) chelates of nineteen trihydroxamate siderophores of fungal origin, including
ferrichromes, coprogen and triacetylfusarinine C, were separated on a preparative scale …

Biochemical and electron microscopic evidence is presented that sideramine-free fungi form
iron hydroxide polymer layers on the cell surface when grown in an iron containing medium …

Microbial iron bioavailability is largely determined by the coordination chemistry associated
with the siderophores, a class of organic compounds which have a high and specific …

The Fe (III) transport properties of the monohydroxamates, cis-fusarinine (cF) and trans-
fusarinine (tF), and the dihydroxamate, dimerum acid (DA), the major siderophores of the …

Three ericoid mycorrhizal fungi were grown in pure culture under iron deprivation:(i) the
ascomycete Hymenoscyphus ericae, a characteristic endophyte of ericaceous plants on acid …

A screening for siderophores produced by the ectomycorrhizal fungi Laccaria laccata and
Laccaria bicolor in synthetic low iron medium revealed the release of several different …

In this mini-review we describe selected aspects of the coordination chemistry relevant to
siderophore mediated iron transport and bioavailability. Specific emphasis is placed on a …

Growth promotion was tested using M. smegmatis wild type strain, an exochelin-deficient
mutant, and M. fortuitum employing a broad variety of xenosiderophores including …
