Regulation of petrobactin and bacillibactin biosynthesis in Bacillus anthracis under iron and oxygen variation.

Bacillus anthracis produces two catecholate siderophores, petrobactin and bacillibactin, under iron-limited conditions. Here, we investigate how variable iron and oxygen concentrations influence the biosynthetic output of both siderophores in B. anthracis. In addition, we describe the differential l...
