Abstract excerpt
Pseudobactin 358 is the yellow-green fluorescent siderophore produced by Pseudomonas putida WCS358 in conditions of iron limitation. The genes encoding for siderophore biosynthesis are iron-regulated at the transcriptional level. Previous work has shown that a positive regulator, PfrA, is absolutely required for the activation under iron-limiting conditions of pseudobactin 358 biosynthesis. In this study we...
