Identified through a bioinformatics approach, a nonribosomal peptide synthetase gene cluster in Alcanivorax pacificus encodes the biosynthesis of the new siderophore pacifibactin. The structure of pacifibactin differs markedly from the bioinformatic prediction and contains four bidentate metal chelation sites, atypical for siderophores. Genome mining and structural characterization of pacifibactin is reported herein, as well as characterization of pacifibactin variants accessible due to a lack of adenylation domain fidelity during biosynthesis. A spectrophotometric titration of pacifibactin with Fe(III) and C-13 NMR spectroscopy of the Ga(III)-pacifibactin complex establish 1:1 metal:pacifibactin coordination and reveal which of the bidentate binding groups are coordinated to the metal. The photoreaction of Fe(III)-pacifibactin, resulting from Fe(III) coordination of the beta-hydroxyaspartic acid ligands, is reported.
