Abstract	To assess the importance of ferrous iron acquisition in Campylobacter physiology and pathogenesis, we disrupted and characterized the Fe2+ iron transporter, FeoB, in Campylobacter jejuni NCTC 11168, 81-176, and ATCC 43431. The feoB mutant was significantly affected in its ability to transport 55Fe2+. It accumulated half the amount of iron than the wild-type strain during growth in an iron-containing medium. The intracellular iron of the feoB mutant was localized in the periplasmic space versus the cytoplasm for the wild-type strain. These results indicate that the feoB gene of C. jejuni encodes a functional ferrous iron transport system. Reverse transcriptase PCR analysis revealed the cotranscription of feoB and Cj1397, which encodes a homolog of Escherichia coli feoA. C. jejuni 81-176 feoB mutants exhibited reduced ability to persist in human INT-407 embryonic intestinal cells and porcine IPEC-1 small intestinal epithelial cells compared to the wild type. C. jejuni NCTC 11168 feoB mutant was outcompeted by the wild type for colonization and/or survival in the rabbit ileal loop. The feoB mutants of the three C. jejuni strains were significantly affected in their ability to colonize the chick cecum. And finally, the three feoB mutants were outcompeted by their respective wild-type strains for infection of the intestinal tracts of colostrum-deprived piglets. Taken together, these results demonstrate that FeoB-mediated ferrous iron acquisition contributes significantly to colonization of the gastrointestinal tract during both commensal and infectious relationship, and thus it plays an important role in Campylobacter pathogenesis.
