Role of pyocyanin in the acquisition of iron from transferrin.

Pseudomonas aeruginosa produces a blue pigment called pyocyanin. In the presence of oxidizable substrates, bacteria reduce this pigment to a colorless product, leukopyocyanin. Pyocyanin can also be nonenzymatically reduced by NADH. Leukopyocyanin formed by cell- or NADH-mediated reduction nonenzymat...
