Abstract

The AsbB enzyme, which is involved in the biosynthesis of the virulence-conferring siderophore petrobactin in Bacillus anthracis, is shown to catalyze efficient ATP-dependent condensation of spermidine, but not N-1-(3,4-dihydroxbenzoyl)-spermidine, with N-8-citryl-spermidine or N-1-(3,4-dihydroxbenzoyl)-N-8-citryl-spermidine, suggesting that N-1-(3,4-dihydroxbenzoyl)-spermidine is very unlikely to be a significant intermediate in petrobactin biosynthesis, contrary to previous suggestions.
