Abstract
Helicobacter pylori is a bacterium that can use multiple iron sources. However, it is unknown whether this bacterium secretes molecules such as siderophores or haemophores to scavenge iron. Here, we report the first secreted iron-binding protein of H. pylori, which we purified by haem-affinity chromatography. Mass spectrometry analysis revealed its identity as chaperonin (HpGroEL). When we compared HpGroEL with EcGroEL from Escherichia coli,...
