| 1 | Iron traffics in circulation bound to a siderocalin (Ngal)-catechol complex. | catechol | lipocalin 2 | Homo sapiens |
| 2 | Using chemical screens, crystallography and fluorescence methods, we report that Scn-Ngal binds iron together with a small metabolic product called catechol. | catechol | lipocalin 2 | Homo sapiens |
| 3 | As catechols derive from bacterial and mammalian metabolism of dietary compounds, the Scn-Ngal-catechol-Fe(III) complex represents an unforeseen microbial-host interaction, which mimics Scn-Ngal-siderophore interactions but instead traffics iron in aseptic tissues. | catechol | lipocalin 2 | Homo sapiens |
