Demonstration of an iron-siderophore-binding protein in the outer membrane of Pseudomonas aeruginosa. 1983

P A Sokol, and D E Woods

Outer membranes prepared from Pseudomonas aeruginosa grown in low-iron medium bind three times as much [59Fe]pyochelin as do membranes from cells grown in high-iron medium. The deletion of pyochelin reduced 59Fe binding to background levels. Autoradiographic analysis of sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoretograms of outer membrane preparations previously incubated with [59Fe]pyochelin revealed that the iron-siderophore complex bound to a low-molecular-weight protein of approximately 14,000.

D010636	Phenols	Benzene derivatives that include one or more hydroxyl groups attached to the ring structure.
D011550	Pseudomonas aeruginosa	A species of gram-negative, aerobic, rod-shaped bacteria commonly isolated from clinical specimens (wound, burn, and urinary tract infections). It is also found widely distributed in soil and water. P. aeruginosa is a major agent of nosocomial infection.

D011956	Receptors, Cell Surface	Cell surface proteins that bind signalling molecules external to the cell with high affinity and convert this extracellular event into one or more intracellular signals that alter the behavior of the target cell (From Alberts, Molecular Biology of the Cell, 2nd ed, pp693-5). Cell surface receptors, unlike enzymes, do not chemically alter their ligands.
