Efficient density functional theory directed identification of siderophores with increased selectivity towards indium and germanium

Journal of Hazardous Materials, Год журнала: 2024, Номер 478, С. 135523 - 135523

Опубликована: Авг. 19, 2024

Siderophores are promising ligands for application in novel recycling and bioremediation technologies, as they can selectively complex a variety of metals. However, with over 250 known siderophores, the selection suiting complexants wet lab is impractical. Thus, this study established density functional theory (DFT) based approach to efficiently identify siderophores increased selectivity towards target metals on example germanium indium. Considering 239 structures, chemically similar were clustered, their complexation reactions modeled utilizing DFT. The calculations revealed with, compared reference siderophore desferrioxamine B (DFOB), up 128 % or 48 higher indium germanium, respectively. Experimental validation method was conducted fimsbactin A agrobactin, demonstrating 40 more selective binding at least sevenfold better than DFOB, results generated open door utilization eco-friendly technologies recovery many different critical from various industry waters leachates approaches. This endeavor greatly facilitated by applying herein-created database geometry-optimized structures de novo modeling molecules be omitted.

Structure, Function, and Biosynthesis of Siderophores Produced by Streptomyces Species

Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry, Год журнала: 2025, Номер unknown

Опубликована: Янв. 14, 2025

Since the natural supply of iron is low, microorganisms acquire by secreting siderophores. Streptomyces known for its abundant secondary metabolites containing various types siderophores, including hydroxamate, catecholate, and carboxylate. These siderophores are mainly synthesized through nonribosomal peptide synthase (NRPS) non-NRPS pathways regulated ferric uptake regulator diphtheria toxin regulators. Although both NRPS adenylate substrates, they differ significantly in catalytic logic. Siderophores produced play important roles fields agriculture, medicine, environment. However, their structure, function, synthetic mechanisms have been inadequately summarized. Therefore, this Review aimed to provide an overview classification, biosynthesis, regulation, applications Streptomyces. Finally, need a comprehensive well-defined mechanism synthesizing from was highlighted further promote commercialization application other areas.

Plant Architecture, Tolerances to NaCl and Heavy Metals May Predispose Tragus racemosus to Growth Around Motorways

Plants, Год журнала: 2025, Номер 14(5), С. 784 - 784

Опубликована: Март 4, 2025

Tragus racemosus often grows in close proximity to motorways. The aim of this work was determine whether the seeds species can grow under salt (NaCl) stress, how plants are able accumulate heavy metals and what plant architecture prerequisites they have for spreading. It found that structure consists a single rosette first order, from which shoots order develop, on rosettes second grow, is repeated modularly. Higher-order produce their own root systems. Research revealed its small metal tolerances during germination early development. concentration above-ground parts following rank: Fe >> Zn > Ni ≥ Pb Cu; soil, it Cu Ni. germinates successfully environments containing NaCl up 0.50% (including solutions 0.12% 0.25%). However, higher contents 0.99% 1.96% proved lethal seed germination. This tolerance explains why T. commonly along motorways where winter road maintenance involves application salt. These adaptations give competitive advantage these human-modified environments. Furthermore, turned out be possible hyperaccumulator.

The growing threat of antibiotic resistance has made treating bacterial and fungal infections increasingly difficult. With the discovery new antibiotics slowing down, alternative strategies are urgently needed. Siderophores, small iron-chelating molecules produced by microorganisms, play a crucial role in iron acquisition serve as virulence factors many pathogens. Because is essential for microbial survival, targeting siderophore biosynthesis transport presents promising approach to combating drug-resistant infections. This review explores key genetic biochemical mechanisms involved production, emphasizing potential drug targets within these pathways. Three major biosynthetic routes examined: nonribosomal peptide synthetase (NRPS)-dependent, polyketide synthase (PKS)-based, NRPS-independent (NIS) Additionally, uptake membrane-associated systems discussed, providing insights into their sustaining pathogenic growth. Recent advances inhibitor development have shown that blocking critical enzymes can effectively impair By disrupting pathways, antimicrobial be developed, offering alternatives traditional potentially reducing risk resistance.
