Contents
ABC transporters for theuptake of iron/ siderophores
- YusV-FeuB-FeuC-FeuA: uptake of the siderophores enterobactin and bacillibactin
- FhuC-FhuB-FhuG-FhuD-YxeB: uptake of ferrichrome und ferrioxamine
- YclN-YclO-YclP-YclQ: uptake of petrobactin (a siderophore produced by B. anthracis and B. cereus)
- YusV-YfiZ-YfhA-YfiY: uptake of the siderophores schizokinen and arthrobactin
- YfmF-YfmD-YfmE-YfmC-YhfQ: uptake of iron/citrate
