| Abstract | Microcin E492 (MccE492) is an antibacterial peptide naturally secreted by Klebsiella pneumoniae RYC492. Initially described as an 84-residue unmodified peptide, it was also recently isolated in a posttranslationally modified form, MccE492m. The production of MccE492m is dependent on the synthesis of enterobactin and the mceABCDEFGHIJ gene cluster. The posttranslational modification was characterized as a trimer of N-(2,3-dihydroxybenzoyl)-l-serine (DHBS) linked to the Ser84-carboxylate via a β-d-glucose moiety. MccE492m was shown to bind ferric ions through the trimer of DHBS. This is the first example of a novel type of antibacterial peptide termed siderophore-peptide. Recognition of MccE492m, but also of the unmodified MccE492, was shown to be mediated by the catecholate siderophore receptors FepA, Cir and Fiu at the outer membrane of E. coli. The siderophore-type modification was shown to be responsible for a significant enhancement of the microcin antibacterial activity. Therefore, we propose that MccE492 and MccE492m use iron-siderophore receptors for uptake into the target bacteria and that improvement of MccE492 antimicrobial activity upon modification results from an increase in the microcin/receptor affinity. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
