Expression

Organism Comment Expression
Escherichia coli isoform NrdEF is induced during H2O2 stress. Induction is mediated by the inactivation of Fur, an iron-dependent repressor. NrdEF supports cell replication in iron-depleted cells. Iron binds to NrdF when it is expressed in iron-rich cells, but NrdEF is functional only in cells that are both iron-depleted and manganese-rich up
