The aerobactin iron uptake system of plasmid ColV-K30 in Escherichia coli
Some strains of Escherichia coli possess an iron uptake system, first found on a ColV plasmid, which utilises the hydroxamate siderophore aerobactin and which significantly enhances the virulence of host bacteria in experimental infections of mice. The aerobactin system of plasmid ColV-K30, cloned a...
