Abstract
Bordetella bronchiseptica secreted a hydroxamate siderophore when grown in Fe-depleted medium. A Tn5lac insertion mutant of B. bronchiseptica, DBB22, did not produce this hydroxamate siderophore and was incapable of using lactoferrin as an Fe source. Our data suggest that B. bronchiseptica uses a siderophore for removal of Fe from lactoferrin and transferrin rather than relying upon a receptor for these host Fe-binding proteins.
