Identification of “fhuA” Like Genes in Rhizobium leguminosarum ATCC 14479 and its Role in Vicibactin Transport and Investigation of Heme Bound Iron Uptake System

Siderophores are low molecular weight, iron chelating compounds produced by many bacteria for uptake of iron in case of iron scarcity. Vicibactin is a trihydroxamate type siderophore produced by Rhizobium leguminosarum bv. trifolii ATCC 14479. This work focuses on identifying an outer membrane recep...
