Common NameDelftibactin A
DescriptionDelftibactin A is a non-ribosomal peptide (NRP) produced by the bacterium Delftia acidovorans, which is known for its unique ability to colonize gold nuggets and secrete this peptidic natural product (PMID:40674135 ). The compound has a complex chemical structure that facilitates its role as a metallophore, specifically in the detoxification of gold, and has demonstrated properties that enable the reductive formation of gold nanoparticles (PMID:38739531 ). Genome sequencing of the DSM 21246 strain revealed a biosynthetic gene cluster responsible for delftibactin A production, highlighting its biochemical pathways (PMID:38739531 ). Additionally, delftibactin A exhibits potent antimicrobial activity against a range of multidrug-resistant (MDR) bacteria, including Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and Vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus (VRE), as well as Gram-negative pathogens like Acinetobacter baumannii and Klebsiella pneumoniae (PMID:31681234 ). Its production is influenced by environmental factors such as temperature, and it has potential applications as a siderophore carrier for toxic metals like gallium into Gram-negative bacteria, suggesting its utility in combating antibiotic resistance (PMID:31681234 ).
