1.B.14.8.3
Vibriobactin receptor, VuiA or VuuA of 687 aas and 1 N-terminal TMS. There is conserved, global coordinate iron regulation in V. cholerae by the Fur transcription factor, responsive to iron (Butterton et al. 1992). V. cholerae synthesizes and uses the catechol siderophore vibriobactin and also uses siderophores secreted by other species, including enterobactin produced by E. coli (Wyckoff et al. 2015).  ViuB, a putative V. cholerae siderophore-interacting protein (SIP), functionally substituted for the E. coli ferric reductase YqjH, which promotes the release of iron from the siderophore in the bacterial cytoplasm. In V. cholerae, ViuB is required for the use of vibriobactin but is not required for the use of MECAM, fluvibactin, ferrichrome, or the linear derivatives of enterobactin, all substrates of ViuA (Wyckoff et al. 2015).
