| Name | ferrous iron transport Feo system |
| Type | SYSTEM |
| Description | The proteins FeoA, FeoB, and FeoC are a bacterial ferrous iron transport system. No siderophores are involved. Ferrous iron (Fe(2+)) typically is present only during oxygen limitation. |
| JCVI Role | Cations and iron carrying compounds |
