Distribution and application of mycobactins for the characterization of species within the genus Rhodococcus.

R M Hall, C Ratledge.   

Abstract

Representatives of 11 species of Rhodococcus were examined for their ability to synthesize mycobactin, a lipid-soluble siderophore, following iron-limited growth on solidified glycerol/asparagine medium. Rhodococcus bronchialis, R. terrae and R. rubropertinctus formed mycobactins, whereas the remaining species (R. coprophilus, R. equi, R. erythropolis, R. rhodnii, R. rhodochrous, R. ruber, R. maris and R. luteus) failed to synthesize these compounds even under conditions of strictly iron-limited growth. The mycobactins from R. terrae and R. rubropertinctus showed close similarity by thin-layer chromatography and high-performance liquid chromatography and could be easily distinguished from that of R. bronchialis.
