Disease relevance of tonB

The TonB-dependent ferrichrome receptor FcuA of Yersinia enterocolitica: evidence against a strict co-evolution of receptor structure and substrate specificity [1].
TonB-dependent iron supply in Salmonella by alpha-ketoacids and alpha-hydroxyacids [2].

High impact information on tonB

Growth stimulation, observed both in cross-feeding tests on solid medium and in liquid cultures, and uptake of 55Fe in the presence of alpha-ketoisocaproic acid, were TonB dependent in S. typhimurium [2].
