Acinetobactin is a bifunctional siderophore secreted by Acinetobacter baumannii that competitively binds ferric iron ions. Acinetobactin supplies A. baumannii by sequestering host-sequestered Fe 3+, while competitively depriving skin and respiratory commensal bacteria of iron resources, thereby exerting growth-inhibitory effects on Staphylococcus epidermidis, Staphylococcus hominis, Staphylococcus haemolyticus, and Corynebacterium striatum. The synthesis and transport of Acinetobactin enhance the intracellular epithelial colonization ability of A. baumannii, induce apoptosis of host epithelial cells, and simultaneously improve the survival and invasion capabilities of the bacterium in Galleria mellonella and mouse sepsis models. Acinetobactin can be used in A. baumannii-related research .
