Siderophores are well-recognized low-molecular-weight compounds produced by
numerous microorganisms to acquire iron from the surrounding environments. These …

Siderophores are small molecular weight metal scavengers which are released by plants,
plant growth-promoting bacterial strains and fungi into the rhizosphere. These molecules …

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are major sources of oxidative stress playing prominent
roles in the development of several pathologies including cardiovascular and …

Mycobacterium tuberculosis, the causative agent of tuberculosis, is an obligate intracellular
pathogen that lives within the phagosome of macrophages. Here we demonstrate that the …

We designed a tris-catecholate-based siderophore mimic, H6-T-CATL, to selectively chelate
iron (III) from mitochondrial cytochromes and other iron-containing proteins within cellular …

The iron-regulated outer membrane protein (OMP) of Aeromonas hydrophila is an effective
vaccine candidate, but its intrinsic functional components are largely unknown. In this study …

Biosynthesis of the hydroxamic acid siderophore desferrioxamine D1 (DFOD1, 6), which is
the N-acetylated analogue of desferrioxamine B (DFOB, 5), has been delineated. Enzyme …

Phytoremediation is a technique in which plants can degrade, stabilize, and/or remove the
environmental contaminants (organic and inorganic pollutants) from polluted soil. This …

A solid-phase platform for the precise and sequential synthesis of enterobactin analogues is
described. This chemistry unites the power of solid-phase peptide synthesis with the unique …

The biosynthetic potential of actinobacteria to produce novel natural products is still
regarded as immense. In this paper, we correlated a cryptic biosynthetic gene cluster to …
