Siderocalin molecule. Computer model showing the structure of siderocalin (pink), a protein of the human immune system. It blocks the uptake of iron by bacteria by binding tightly to a siderophore (green), making it impossible for the bacteria to use the iron contained in the siderophore. The siderophore shown here is an enterobactin.
