Exochelins of Mycobacterium tuberculosis remove iron from human iron- binding proteins and donate iron to mycobactins in the M. tuberculosis cell wall
To multiply and cause disease in the host, Mycobacterium tuberculosis must acquire iron from the extracellular environment at sites of replication. To do so, the bacterium releases high-affinity iron- binding siderophores called exochelins. In previous studies, we have described the purification and...
