Metabolite Identification
Common NameAcinetoferrin
DescriptionAcinetoferrin is a hydroxamate siderophore belonging to the class of metabolites produced by certain bacteria, specifically Acinetobacter haemolyticus. It plays a crucial role in iron acquisition under iron-limiting conditions, which is essential for bacterial growth and survival. The biosynthesis and transport of acinetoferrin are facilitated by a gene cluster comprising eight genes, including acbABCD and actBCAD, which encode enzymes and receptors necessary for its production and uptake (PMID:23378574 ). Mutants lacking these genes demonstrate an inability to synthesize acinetoferrin or express the ferric acinetoferrin receptor, highlighting the importance of these genetic components in siderophore functionality (PMID:23378574 ). Furthermore, acinetoferrin has been shown to be utilized by Mycobacterium tuberculosis as an iron source, indicating its significance beyond Acinetobacter species (PMID:17401548 ). The structural analysis of acinetoferrin and its analogs has provided insights into the mechanisms of iron transport in various pathogens, emphasizing its relevance in microbial physiology and potential therapeutic applications (PMID:17401548 ). Overall, acinetoferrin exemplifies the intricate interplay between microbial metabolism and environmental nutrient availability.
