Small, high-affinity iron-chelating molecules secreted by bacteria and fungi to scavenge ferric iron (Fe3+) from the environment. Siderophore competition is a fundamental ecological force in the gut microbiome: organisms with superior iron acquisition systems gain a dec…
Siderophores are small, high-affinity iron-chelating molecules secreted by bacteria, fungi, and some plants to scavenge ferric iron (Fe3+) from their environment. In the context of infection, siderophores are the molecular weapons pathogens deploy to break through nutri…

iron occupies a unique position among dietary metals: it is both an essential nutrient and a selective pressure that shapes the gut microbial ecosystem. The form, quantity, and bioavailability of dietary iron determines which microbes thrive and which are competitively …
