Fe–S proteins that regulate gene expression
Iron-sulfur (Fe-S) cluster containing proteins that regulate gene expression are present in most organisms. The innate chemistry of their Fe-S cofactors makes these regulatory proteins ideal for sensing environmental signals, such as gases (e.g. O2 and NO), levels of Fe and Fe-S clusters, reactive oxygen species, and redox cycling compounds, to ...

Background: In production animal agriculture, the cost of feed represents 60–70% of the total cost of raising an animal to market weight. Thus, development of viable biomarkers for feed efficiency (FE, g gain/g feed) to assist in genetic selection of ...

Biosynthesis of cofactor‐activatable iron‐only nitrogenase in Saccharomyces cerevisiae
Summary Engineering nitrogenase in eukaryotes is hampered by its genetic complexity and by the oxygen sensitivity of its protein components. Of the three types of nitrogenases, the Fe‐only nitrogenase is considered the simplest one because its function ...

Iron and zinc grain density in common wheat grown in Central Asia [PDF]
Sixty-six spring and winter common wheat genotypes from Central Asian breeding programs were evaluated for grain concentrations of iron (Fe) and zinc (Zn). Iron showed large variation among genotypes, ranging from 25 mg kg1 to 56 mg kg1 (mean 38 mg kg1).

SnapShot: Eukaryotic Fe-S Protein Biogenesis
Iron-sulfur (Fe-S) clusters are essential protein cofactors involved in functions ranging from electron transport and enzyme processes to DNA replication, DNA repair, transcription, and translation. The synthesis of Fe-S clusters and their subsequent insertion into apoproteins is a conserved process involving some 30 proteins.

Encapsulation of human serum albumin in submicrometer magnetic poly(lactide-co-glycolide) particles as a model system for targeted drug delivery [PDF]
Two types of iron oxide nanoparticles were synthesized by coprecipitation of Fe(II) and Fe(III) chlorides: water-dispersible γ-Fe2O3 and organic solvent-dispersible oleic acid-coated Fe3O4 particles.

The pio Operon Is Essential for Phototrophic Fe(II) Oxidation in Rhodopseudomonas palustris TIE-1 [PDF]
Phototrophic Fe(II)-oxidizing bacteria couple the oxidation of ferrous iron [Fe(II)] to reductive CO2 fixation by using light energy, but until recently, little has been understood about the molecular basis for this process. Here we report the discovery,
