Interaction of the Streptomyces Wbl protein WhiD with the principal sigma factor σHrdB depends on the WhiD [4Fe-4S] cluster [PDF]
, 2020 The bacterial protein WhiD belongs to the Wbl family of iron–sulfur [Fe-S] proteins present only in the actinomycetes. In Streptomyces coelicolor, it is required for the late stages of sporulation, but precisely how it functions is unknown.

The Biochemist, 2012 Iron makes up 35% of the Earth's mass, and is plentiful in its crust (approximately 5%), so it is not surprising that Biology has found many different applications for it. Iron–sulfur (Fe–S) clusters are essential, ubiquitous inorganic cofactors in electron-transport proteins of respiration and photosynthesis, and are responsible for the activity of ...
