Pyochelin outer membrane receptor FptA from Pseudomonas aeruginosa
Overview
Pyochelin is a siderophore and virulence factor common to Burkholderia, cepacia and several Pseudomonas strains. We describe at 2.0 A resolution, the crystal structure of the pyochelin outer membrane receptor FptA bound, to the iron-pyochelin isolated from Pseudomonas aeruginosa. One pyochelin, molecule bound to iron is found in the protein structure, providing the, first three-dimensional structure at the atomic level of this siderophore., The pyochelin molecule provides a tetra-dentate coordination of iron, while the remaining bi-dentate coordination is ensured by another molecule, not specifically recognized by the protein. The overall structure of the, pyochelin receptor is typical of the TonB-dependent transporter, superfamily, which uses the proton motive force from the cytoplasmic, membrane through the TonB-ExbB-ExbD energy transducing complex to, transport ferric ions across the bacterial outer membrane: a transmembrane, 22 beta-stranded barrel occluded by a N-terminal domain that contains a, mixed four-stranded beta-sheet. The N-terminal TonB box is disordered in, two crystal forms, and loop L8 is found to point towards the, iron-pyochelin complex, suggesting that the receptor is in a, transport-competent conformation.
