Iron is an essential trace-element for most organisms. However, because high concentration
of free intracellular iron is cytotoxic, cells have developed complex regulatory networks that …

The small RNA RyhB has recently been shown to negatively regulate a number of mRNAs
encoding dispensable iron‐using proteins in Escherichia coli. The resulting decrease in the …

RyhB is a noncoding RNA regulated by the Fur repressor. It has previously been shown to
cause the rapid degradation of a number of mRNAs that encode proteins that utilize iron …

Fe-S clusters are cofactors conserved through all domains of life. Once assembled by
dedicated ISC and/or SUF scaffolds, Fe-S clusters are conveyed to their apo-targets via A …

Iron is an essential element for Escherichia, Salmonella, and Shigella species. The
acquisition of sufficient amounts of iron is difficult in many environments, including the …

Living organisms often have to adapt to sudden environmental changes and reach
homeostasis. To achieve adaptation, cells deploy motifs such as feedback in their genetic …

Iron is one of the most important metals in the metabolism of many organisms, including
bacteria, in which it serves as a cofactor in multiple enzymatic reactions. Most of the earlier …

For most organisms, iron is an essential nutrient that is both difficult to acquire from the
environment and toxic at high concentration. Therefore, to avoid deprivation or over …

Organisms generally respond to iron deficiency by increasing their capacity to take up iron
and by consuming intracellular iron stores. Escherichia coli, in which iron metabolism is …

For most living organisms, iron is both essential and potentially toxic, making the precise
maintenance of iron homeostasis necessary for survival. To manage this paradox, bacteria …
