Pathogenic members of the Neisseriaceae and Pasteurellaceae express outer-membrane
receptor proteins involved in the direct assimilation of iron from the host glycoproteins …

Iron serves essential functions in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes, and cells have highly
specialized mechanisms for acquiring and handling this metal. The primary mechanism by …

Biomimetic analogs 1 of the microbial siderophore (iron carrier) ferrichrome were labeled
with a fluorescent marker at a site which does not interfere with iron binding or receptor …

Growth and magnetite formation in Magnetospirillum gryphiswaldense MSR-1 were found
close to the maximum at an extracellular iron concentration of 15–20 μM. Ferrous iron was …

We have isolated a high copy suppressor of a temperature-sensitive mutation in ATM1,
which codes for an ABC transporter of Saccharomyces cerevisiae mitochondria. The …

The induction of cascades of virulence factors after contact between bacteria and host cells
was investigated. P-pili mediate the binding of uropathogenic Escherichia coli to its host cell …

Survival of Bacteroides fragilis in the presence of oxygen was dependent on the ability of
bacteria to synthesize new proteins, as determined by the inhibition of protein synthesis after …

The pesticin receptor (Psn) of Yersinia pestis confers sensitivity to the bacteriocin, pesticin,
and is an integral component of an inorganic‐iron‐transport system that functions at 37° C …

In recent years, significant advances have been made in our understanding of the
mechanism and regulation of elemental iron transport in the eukaryote Saccharomyces …

To identify possible iron sources for bacteroids in planta, soybean (Glycine max L. Merr.)
symbiosomes (consisting of the bacteroid-containing peribacteroid space enclosed by the …
