Experimental and computational methods to highlight behavioural variations in TonB-dependent transporter expression in Pseudomonas aeruginosa versus siderophore concentration
Abstract Iron is a key nutrient for bacterial growth. The source can be either heme or siderophore-Fe complexes. Siderophores are small molecules synthesized by bacteria to scavenge iron from the bacterial environment. The pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa can express at least 15 different iron uptake...
