Synonyms
siderophore anabolism, siderophore biosynthesis, siderophore formation, siderophore synthesis, siderochrome biosynthesis, siderochrome biosynthetic process, siderophore biosynthetic process, peptide formation, siderophore biosynthetic process, peptide modification
Alternate IDs

Definition
The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the formation of siderophores, low molecular weight Fe(III)-chelating substances made by aerobic or facultatively anaerobic bacteria, especially when growing under iron deficient conditions. The complexes of Fe(3+)-siderophores have very high stability constants and are taken up by specific transport systems by microorganisms; the subsequent release of iron requires enzymatic action.
