The lipocalins are secreted proteins that bind small organic molecules. Scn-Ngal [known as Neutrophil Gelatinase Associated Lipocalin, Siderocalin, Lipocalin 2] sequesters bacterial iron chelators, called siderophores, and consequently blocks bacterial growth. However, Scn-Ngal is also prominently expressed in aseptic diseases, implying that it binds additional ligands and serves additional functions. Using chemical screens, crystallography, and fluorescence methods, we report that Scn-Ngal binds iron together with a small metabolic product called catechol. The formation of the complex blocked the reactivity of iron and permitted its transport once introduced into circulation in vivo. Scn-Ngal then recycled its iron in endosomes by a pH sensitive mechanism. Since catechols derive from bacterial and mammalian metabolism of dietary compounds, the Scn-Ngal:catechol:iron complex represents an unforeseen microbial-host interaction, which mimics Scn-Ngal:siderophore interactions, but instead traffics iron in aseptic tissues. These results identify an endogenous siderophore, which may link the disparate roles of Scn-Ngal in different diseases.
