Abstract excerpt
The iron response regulator (Irr) protein from Bradyrhizobium japonicum is a conditionally stable protein that degrades in response to cellular iron availability. This turnover is heme-dependent, and rapid degradation involves heme binding to a heme regulatory motif (HRM) of Irr. Here, we show th...
