Page/Page column 26, (2019/07/19)
The invention relates to a peptide siderophore, comprising one or more N-nitroso-hydroxylamine ligands. In a preferred embodiment, the peptide siderophore comprises two side chains, each with a N-nitroso-hydroxylamine ligand, and a further side chain with one or more hydroxy carboxylic acid, hydroxamate, catecholate and/or salicylate ligands, wherein the siderophore is preferably cyclic. The invention further relates to a bacterial cell expressing a peptide siderophore of the invention and a composition comprising a peptide siderophore of the invention, for example in the form of its corresponding iron-complex, or bacteria of the invention. The invention further relates to a method for promoting plant growth, promoting root growth or development, improving stress tolerance in a plant and/or for increasing crop yields of a plant, and/or for delivering nitric oxide (NO) to a plant and/or for enhancing chlorophyll production in a plant by administering the peptide siderophore, bacteria expressing the peptide siderophore or a composition comprising the peptide siderophore to said plant.
Practical synthesis of hydroxamate-derived siderophore components by an indirect oxidation method and syntheses of a DIG-siderophore conjugate and a biotin-siderophore conjugate

A practical large-scale synthesis of hydroxamate-derived siderophore components (30 and 40) that utilizes an efficient indirect oxidation method is described and applied to the syntheses of nonradioactive labeled siderophores. Oxidation of imines derived from L-ornithine (17) and its tripeptide (19) afforded oxaziridines that were isomerized to stable nitrones (16 and 18). Acid-catalyzed hydrolysis of nitrones provided hydroxylamines that were converted to the desired hydroxamic acids (30 and 40) suitable for constructing siderophore-drug conjugates (2). The entire synthetic sequence required no chromatographic separation. DIG- and biotin-labeled ferrichrome analogues designed to detect and isolate ferrichrome receptors in various microbes were also synthesized.
