Abstract excerpt
IscR is an Fe-S protein that functions as a transcriptional regulator of Fe-S biogenesis and other Fe-S protein-encoding genes in Escherichia coli. In this study, we investigated the requirement for the ligation of the [2Fe-2S] cluster of IscR to regulate a subset of IscR target promoters (P(hyaA), P(ydiU), P(napF), and P(hybO)) and defined the requirements for sequence-specific binding to the IscR target site in...
