Direct Evidence of Iron Uptake by the Gram-Positive Siderophore-Shuttle Mechanism without Iron Reduction
Iron is an essential element for all organisms, and microorganisms produce small molecule iron-chelators, siderophores, to efficiently acquire Fe(III). Gram-positive bacteria possess lipoprotein siderophore-binding proteins (SBPs) on the membrane. Some of the SBPs bind both apo-siderophores (iron-free) and Fe-siderophore (iron-chelated) and only import Fe-siderophores. When the SBP initially bi...
متن کاملIron and Diabetes Revisited
I ron is the most abundant transitional metal in the body. It has long been recognized that iron overload can increase the risk of diabetes, particularly in iron-overload states such as hemochromatosis and recurrent transfusions in diseases like thalassemia. Furthermore, a large body of epidemiological evidence suggests that an increase in dietary iron (as heme, mainly from meat and meat produc...

متن کاملMechanism of iron uptake.
In the June 1, 1991 issue of Blood, Cochran et all found that the primary pathway for initial uptake of AI-transferrin and Fetransferrin by human fetal red cells (obtained from placentas) was through a high-affinity saturable receptor that did not distinguish between the two metallo-transferrins; that a process that followed initial uptake did distinguish between the two metallo-transferrins; a...
متن کاملDistributed Colour Reduction Revisited
We give a new, simple distributed algorithm for graph colouring in paths and cycles. Our algorithm is fast and self-contained, it does not need any globally consistent orientation, and it reduces the number of colours from 10 to 3 in three iterations.
