    The uptake of the siderophore-iron complex ferrienterochelin was found to be strongly dependent upon an energized membrane state, as demonstrated by its sensitivity to dinitrophenol, azide, and cyanide. Ferrienterochelin uptake may also be dependent upon phosphate bond energy, as indicated by sensitivity to arsenate and iodoacetic acid. Although the adenosine triphosphatase does not appear to be involved in this energy coupling mechanism, ferrienterochelin uptake was shown to be less dependent upon phosphate bond energy than was glutamine uptake. Sensitivity of ferrienterochelin uptake to osmotic shock was shown to be due to the release of a ferrienterochelin binding compound located in the outer membrane of the cells and probably identical to the colicin B receptor protein.
