Term Information

Accession
GO:0033214
Name
siderophore-dependent iron import into cell
Ontology
biological_process
Synonyms
iron assimilation by chelation and transport, iron assimilation by capture and transport, iron chelate transport
Alternate IDs
GO:0033213, GO:0015688
Definition
A process in which iron (Fe3+) is solubilized by ferric iron-specific chelators, known as siderophores, excreted by a cell; the iron-siderophore complex is then transported into the cell by specific cell surface receptors. Source: PMID:16963626, GOC:mah
