Yersiniabactin is a quorum sensing autoinducer and siderophore in uropathogenic <i>Escherichia coli</i>

2023-02-10

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Siderophores are secreted ferric ion chelators used to obtain iron in nutrient-limited environmental niches, including human hosts. While all E. coli encode the enterobactin (Ent) siderophore system, isolates from patients with urinary tract infections additionally encode the genetically distinct yersiniabactin (Ybt) siderophore system. To determine whether the Ent and Ybt systems are functiona...
