N2-citryl-N6-acetyl-N6-hydroxylysine synthase

Requires Mg2+. Aerobactin is one of a group of high-affinity iron chelators known as siderophores and is produced under conditions of iron deprivation. It is a dihydroxamate comprising two molecules of N6-acetyl-N6-hydroxy-L-lysine and one molecule of citrate. This enzyme catalyses the first of two synthase reactions to link N6-acetyl-N6-hydroxy-L-lysine and citrate.
