The ability of the microbial siderophores deferriferrichrome, deferriferrichrome A, and enterobactin to remove iron from
ferritin
has been investigated. In contrast to previously published data with other chelators, all three siderophores rapidly released iron from the mammalian storage protein.
Enterobactin
was found most efficient at removing
ferritin
-bound iron. Using this siderophore, the mechanism by which
ferritin
sequesters iron was studied. The relative iron saturation level of
ferritin
influenced the rate of chelation by the microbial siderophores.
