Genome mining for methanobactins [PDF]

open access: goldBMC Biology, 2013
Methanobactins (Mbns) are a family of copper-binding natural products involved in copper uptake by methanotrophic bacteria. The few Mbns that have been structurally characterized feature copper coordination by two nitrogen-containing heterocycles next to thioamide groups embedded in a peptidic backbone of varying composition.

Mining the genome for iron [PDF]

open access: bronzeNature, 2000
The level of iron in our blood is controlled by tightly regulating the amount of iron that is absorbed through the gut wall. This is a two-step process — iron is taken up in cells called enterocytes that line the gut, and then exported from the enterocytes into the bloodstream.
