Analysis of desferrioxamine-like siderophores and their capability to selectively bind metals and metalloids: development of a robust analytical RP-HPLC method.
Research in Microbiology 2018 August 21
The Actinobacterium Gordonia rubripertincta CWB2 (DSM 46758) produces hydroxamate-type siderophores (188 mg L-1 ) under iron limitation. Analytical reversed-phase HPLC allowed determining a single peak of ferric iron chelating compounds from culture broth which was confirmed by the Fe-CAS assay. Elution profile and its absorbance spectrum were similar to those of commercial (des)ferrioxamine B which was used as reference compound. This confirms previously made assumptions and shows for the first time that the genus Gordonia produces desferrioxamine-like siderophores. The reversed-phase HPLC protocol was optimized to separate metal-free and -loaded oxamines. This allowed to determine siderophore concentrations in solutions as well as metal affinity. The metal loading of oxamines was confirmed by ICP-MS. As a result, it was demonstrated that desferrioxamine prefers trivalent metal ions (Fe3+ > Ga3+ > V3+ > Al3+ ) over divalent ones. In addition, we aimed to show the applicability of the newly established reversed-phase HPLC protocol and to increase the re-usability of desferrioxamines as metal chelators by immobilization on mesocellular silica foam carriers. The siderophores obtained from strain CWB2 and commercial desferrioxamine B were successfully linked to the carrier with a high yield (up to 95%) which was verified by the HPLC method. Metal binding studies demonstrated that metals can be bound to non-immobilized and to the covalently linked desferrioxamines, but also to the carrier material itself. The latter was found to be unspecific and, therefore, the effect of the carrier material remains a field of future research. By means of a reversed CAS assay for various elements (Nd, Gd, La, Er, Al, Ga, V, Au, Fe, As) it was possible to demonstrate improved Ga3+ - and Nd3+ -binding to desferrioxamine loaded mesoporous silica carriers. The combination of the robust reversed-phase HPLC method and various CAS assays provides new avenues to screen for siderophore producing strains, and to control purification and immobilization of siderophores.
