ABSTRACT Shewanella oneidensis is an extensively studied bacterium capable of respiring minerals, including a variety of iron ores, as terminal electron acceptors (EAs). Although iron plays an essential and special role in iron respiration of S. oneidensis, little has been done to date to investigate the characteristics of iron transport in this bacterium. In this study, we found that all proteins encoded by the pub-putA-putB cluster for putrebactin (S. oneidensis native siderophore) synthesis (PubABC), recognition-transport of Fe3+-putrebactin across the outer membrane (PutA), and reduction of ferric putrebactin (PutB) are essential to putrebactin-mediated iron uptake. Although homologs of PutA are many, none can function as its replacement, but some are able to work with other bacterial siderophores. We then showed that Fe2+-specific Feo is the other primary iron uptake system, based on the synthetical lethal phenotype resulting from the loss of both iron uptake routes. The role of the Feo system in iron uptake appears to be more critical, as growth is significantly impaired by the absence of the system but not of putrebactin. Furthermore, we demonstrate that hydroxyl acids, especially α-types such as lactate, promote iron uptake in a Feo-dependent manner. Overall, our findings underscore the importance of the ferrous iron uptake system in metal-reducing bacteria, providing an insight into iron homeostasis by linking these two biological processes. IMPORTANCE S. oneidensis is among the first- and the best-studied metal-reducing bacteria, with great potential in bioremediation and biotechnology. However, many questions regarding mechanisms closely associated with those applications, such as iron homeostasis, including iron uptake, export, and regulation, remain to be addressed. Here we show that Feo is a primary player in iron uptake in addition to the siderophore-dependent route. The investigation also resolved a few puzzles regarding the unexpected phenotypes of the putA mutant and lactate-dependent iron uptake. By elucidating the physiological roles of these two important iron uptake systems, this work revealed the breadth of the impacts of iron uptake systems on the biological processes.

ABSTRACT Biosynthesis and uptake of siderophores in Aspergillus nidulans are regulated not only by iron availability but also by ambient pH: expression of this high-affinity iron uptake system is elevated by an increase in the ambient pH. Mediation of this regulation by the transcriptional regulator PacC has been confirmed via acidity- and alkalinity-mimicking mutants.

SUMMARYStrains ofSalmonella enteritidiswere examined for their ability to remove ferricions from the iron chelating agents ovotransferrin, Desferal and EDDA. Growth ofS. enteritidisphage type (PT) 4 (SE4) in trypticase soy broth containing ovotransferrin resulted in the expression of iron regulated outer membrane proteins (OMPs) of 74. 78 and 81 kDa. and unexpectedly the repression of expression of OMP C. The 38 MDa ‘mouse virulence’ plasmid was not required for the expression of the iron-regulated OMPs (IROMPs). SE4 was able to obtain iron bound to the iron chelator Desferal and EDDA without expressing a high-affinity iron uptake system. Strains ofS. enteritidisbelonging to PTs 7. 8, 13a, 23. 24 and 30 were also able to remove ferric ions from Desferal and EDDA without expressing a high-affinity iron uptake system. We conclude that strains of SE4 possess a high-affinity iron sequestering mechanism that can readily remove iron from ovotransferrin. It is likely that iron limitation, and not iron restriction, is responsible for the bacteriostatic properties of fresh egg whites.

ABSTRACT FOX1 encodes an iron deficiency-induced ferroxidase involved in a high-affinity iron uptake system. Mutagenesis analysis of the FOX1 promoter identified two separate iron-responsive elements, FeRE1 (CACACG) and FeRE2 (CACGCG), between positions −87 and −82 and between positions −65 and −60, respectively, and both are needed for induced FOX1 expression under conditions of iron deficiency.
