Comment Requires Mg2+. Aerobactin is one of a group of high-affinity iron
chelators known as siderophores and is produced under conditions of
iron deprivation [5]. It is a dihydroxamate comprising two molecules
of N6-acetyl-N6-hydroxylysine and one molecule of citric acid. This
is the last of the three enzymes involved in its synthesis, the
others being EC 1.14.13.59, L-lysine 6-monooxygenase (NADPH) and EC
2.3.1.102, N6-hydroxylysine O-acetyltransferase [3].
