title: Inhibition of iron uptake and deoxyribonucleic acid synthesis by Desferal in a mutant strain of Bacillus subtilis.
abstract: In the Bacillus subtilis mutant 1D-4, the hydroxamate Desferal inhibited growth, iron uptake, and deoxyribonucleic acid synthesis but did not quantitatively affect synthesis of ribonucleic acid and protein.
