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.
