Abstract

ABSTRACT We cloned lbpB , encoding a predicted 80-kDa lipoprotein, upstream of lbpA . A nonpolar mutant (LbpB − LbpA + ) had normal lactoferrin (LF) binding and grew normally with LF as an iron source, whereas LbpB − LbpA − and LbpB + LbpA − strains had reduced binding of LF and did not grow with LF as an iron source. LbpB bound LF directly in an affinity purification, suggesting that LbpB might play a still-uncharacterized role in the LF iron utilization.
