Iron, siderophores, and the pursuit of virulence: independence of the aerobactin and enterochelin iron uptake systems in Escherichia coli.
Many strains of Escherichia coli isolated from extraintestinal infections of humans and domestic animals are able to synthesize two siderophores, aerobactin and enterochelin. Although aerobactin has a dramatically lower affinity for iron than enterochelin, it has been shown to provide a significant...
