In cooperation with the Department of Microbiology, several new microbial iron chelators
(siderophores) were isolated, purified and their structures were determined.
Different metal
complexes of the carboxylate siderophore rhizoferrin
were prepared and analyzed.
Receptor-binding and transportation properties in
enterobacteriaceae
and
zygomycetes
were
studied using biosynthetic derivatives and
3
H-labeled rhizoferrin. 3D structures of gallium
complexes were calculated on the basis of NMR-derived conformational constraints.
