Title: | The competition between enterobactin and glutathione for iron | Authors: | Hamed, Mazen Hider, Robert C. Silver, Jack |
Issue Date: | Jan-1982 | Publisher: | ResearchGate | Abstract: | The competition for iron between thiol and catechol compounds is described. At pH values < 7.0, both mercaptoethanol and glutathione are able to completely remove iron from catechol. Although it is more diffxult to abstract iron from enterobactin, a tris-catecholato ligand, glutathione in contrast to mercaptoethanol, is able to compete effectively with this siderophore at pH values c6.0. As a result of being a multidentate ligand, glutathione forms stable complexes with iron( These findings offer a realistic explanation for the in vivo removal of iron from enterobactin without necessitating its destruction | Description: | Jack,Silver:Brunel University London | URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/20.500.11889/1954 |
