Deferoxamine enhances V. vulnificus growth Clinical isolates Enviromental isolates
The presence of deferoxamine under iron-limited condition induces desA expression NL-HI: Normal heart infusion broth DP: 200 mmole/L dipyridyl Df: deferoxamine DF-HI: deferrated HI broth CA: cirrhotic ascites
Wild type desA mutation blocks the growth enhancement from deferoxamine PBS deferoxamine
Deferoxamine can remove iron bound to tranferrin, especially MC and DF forms AP: apoferric transferrin MN: N’ terminal monferric transferrin MC: C’ terminal monoferric transferrin DF: diferric transferrin
CMM2301: vulnibactin (siderophore) deficient strain Deferrated HI broth + partially iron-saturated transferrin (desA - ) (desA +) Cirrhotic ascites PBS deferoxamine
