Natural combinatorial genetics and prolific polyamine production enable siderophore diversification in Serratia plymuthica
Sara Cleto, Kristina Haslinger, Kristala L. J. Prather, Timothy K. Lu
This study identifies multiple siderophores produced by Serratia plymuthica V4 using three gene clusters and a polyamine superpathway, highlighting enterobactin's role in bacterial fitness and the strain's potential for industrial polyamine production.
