NsrR from Streptomyces coelicolor is a nitric oxide-sensing [4Fe-4S] cluster protein with a specialized regulatory function [PDF]
, 2015 The Rrf2 family transcription factor NsrR controls expression of genes in a wide range of bacteria in response to nitric oxide (NO). The precise form of the NO-sensing module of NsrR is the subject of controversy because NsrR proteins containing either ...

Heterocyst Thylakoid Bioenergetics
Life, 2019 Heterocysts are specialized cells that differentiate in the filaments of heterocystous cyanobacteria. Their role is to maintain a microoxic environment for the nitrogenase enzyme during diazotrophic growth.

Navigating Transition Metal‐Dependent Cell Death: Mechanisms, Crosstalk, and Future Directions
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Transition metals trigger distinct regulated cell death pathways beyond traditional apoptosis. This review examines ferroptosis (iron‐catalyzed lipid peroxidation) and cuproptosis (copper‐induced mitochondrial proteotoxicity), while exploring hypothetical “cobaltosis” as a novel pathway.
