چکیده
19 Iron is essential for pathogen survival, virulence, and colonization. Feo is suggested to function as 20 the ferrous iron (Fe) transporter. The enterobacterial Feo system is composed of 3 proteins: FeoB is 21 the indispensable component and is a large membrane protein likely to function as a permease; FeoA is 22 a small src-homology 3 (SH3) domain protein that interacts with FeoB; FeoC is a winged-helix protein 23 JB Accepts, published online ahead of print on 16 August 2013 J.

FeoC from Klebsiella pneumoniae contains a [4Fe-4S] cluster.
Iron is essential for pathogen survival, virulence, and colonization. Feo is suggested to function as the ferrous iron (Fe(2+)) transporter. The enterobacterial Feo system is composed of 3 proteins: FeoB is the indispensable component and is a large membrane protein likely to function as a permease; FeoA is a small Src homology 3 (SH3) domain protein that interacts with FeoB; FeoC is a winged-h...
متن کاملLon-mediated proteolysis of the FeoC protein prevents Salmonella enterica from accumulating the Fe(II) transporter FeoB under high-oxygen conditions.
The Salmonella Feo system consists of the FeoA, FeoB, and FeoC proteins and mediates ferrous iron [Fe(II)] import. FeoB is an inner membrane protein that, along with contributions from two small hydrophilic proteins, FeoA and FeoC, transports Fe(II). We previously reported that FeoC binds to and protects the FeoB transporter from FtsH-mediated proteolysis. In the present study, we report proteo...
متن کاملNucleotide sequence of the gene coding for the nitrogenase iron protein from Klebsiella pneumoniae.
We report the complete DNA sequence of the Klebsiella pneumoniae nifH gene, the gene which codes for component 2 (Fe protein or nitrogenase reductase) of the nitrogenase enzyme complex. The amino acid sequence of the K. pneumoniae nitrogenase Fe protein is deduced from the DNA sequence. The K. pneumoniae Fe protein contains 292 amino acids, has a Mr = 31,753, and contains 9 cysteine residues. W...
متن کاملDetection of magA Gene in Klebsiella spp. Isolated from Clinical Samples
Objective(s): Klebsiella infections are caused mainly by K. pneumoniae and K. oxytoca. In the last two decades, a new type of invasive Klebsiella pneumoniae which contains mucoviscosity-associated gene (magA) has emerged. The aim of this study was to investigate the prevalence of magA gene and to detect antimicrobial susceptibility patterns of Klebsiella spp. isolated from clinical samples....
متن کاملPyrroloquinoline quinone biogenesis: demonstration that PqqE from Klebsiella pneumoniae is a radical S-adenosyl-L-methionine enzyme.
Biogenesis of pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ) in Klebsiella pneumoniae requires the expression of six genes (pqqA-F). One of these genes (pqqE) encodes a 43 kDa protein (PqqE) that plays a role in the initial steps in PQQ formation [Veletrop, J. S., et al. (1995) J. Bacteriol. 177, 5088-5098]. PqqE contains two highly conserved cysteine motifs at the N- and C-termini, with the N-terminal motif c...
