- W2079754673 abstract "To initiate and sustain an infection in mammals, bacterial pathogens must acquire host iron. However, the host's compartmentalization of large amounts of iron in heme, which is bound primarily by hemoglobin in red blood cells, acts as a barrier to bacterial iron assimilation. Bacillus anthracis, the causative agent of the disease anthrax, secretes two NEAT (near iron transporter) proteins, IsdX1 and IsdX2, which scavenge heme from host hemoglobin and promote growth under low iron conditions. The mechanism of heme transfer from these hemophores to the bacterial cell is not known. We present evidence that the heme-bound form of IsdX1 rapidly and directionally transfers heme to IsdC, a NEAT protein covalently attached to the cell wall, as well as to IsdX2. In both cases, the transfer of heme is mediated by a physical association between the donor and recipient. Unlike Staphylococcus aureus, whose NEAT proteins acquire heme from hemoglobin directly at the bacterial surface, B. anthracis secretes IsdX1 to capture heme in the extracellular milieu and relies on NEAT-NEAT interactions to deliver the bound heme to the envelope via IsdC. Understanding the mechanism of NEAT-mediated iron transport into pathogenic Gram-positive bacteria may provide an avenue for the development of therapeutics to combat infection.
