iucB, involve in Aerobactin biosynthesis in E. coli strains
Aerobactin is an iron chelator (siderophore) produced by different strains of E. coli. It is a virulence factor enabling E. coli to sequester iron in iron-poor environments and helps bacteria in colonization inside the host. Aerobactin producing operon is a part of ColV plasmid of E. coli strains. Five genes are present on Aerobactin producing operon, four of them (iucA, iucB, iucC, iucD) are involved in Aerobactin synthesis and one (iutA) is responsible for transportation of Aerobactin.
Other parts involve in synthesis of Aerobactin:
iucA (BBa_K3011001) iucC (BBa_K3011003) iucD (BBa_K3011004) iutA (BBa_K3011005)
