Description
Requires Mg2+. Aerobactin is one of a group of high-affinity iron chelators known as siderophores and is produced under conditions of iron deprivation. It is a dihydroxamate comprising two molecules of N6-acetyl-N6-hydroxy-L-lysine and one molecule of citrate. This enzyme catalyses the first of two synthase reactions to link N6-acetyl-N6-hydroxy-L-lysine and citrate.
Form
Liquid or lyophilized powder
Storage
Store it at +4 ºC for short term. For long term storage, store it at -20 ºC~-80 ºC.
Synonyms
Nα-citryl-Nε-acetyl-Nε-hydroxylysine synthase; iucA (gene name)
Reaction
2 ATP + citrate + N6-acetyl-N6-hydroxy-L-lysine + H2O = 2 ADP + 2 phosphate + N2-citryl-N6-acetyl-N6-hydroxy-L-lysine
