IroB is aC-glycosyltransferase encoded in theiroAcluster.C-Glucosylation of the bacterial siderophore enterobactin by IroB is a strategy some pathogenic bacteria use to evade the host's innate immunity mediated by lipocalin 2 (Lcn2). Without this modification, enterobactin can be tightly bound by host Lcn2, rendering it ineffective as a siderophore. Therefore, IroB inhibitors could be potential antibiotics againstiroA-harboring pathogenic bacteria. We used enterobactin analogues to probe the properties of the active site of IroB and found that enterobactin analogues brominated at the C5 positions of the 2,3-dihydroxybenzoyl rings are potent inhibitors of IroB. This finding could lead to the discovery of effective antibiotics targetingiroA-containing bacteria.
