Loss of transferrin receptor activity in Neisseria meningitidis correlates with inability to use transferrin as an iron source.

Although Neisseria meningitidis does not produce siderophores, it is able to obtain iron from human transferrin. We observed saturable specific binding of 125I-labeled human transferrin to meningococci. Human lactoferrin and mouse transferrin did not compete with human transferrin for binding, where...
