Regulation of Iron Storage by CsrA Supports Exponential Growth of Escherichia coli

Regulation of Iron Storage by CsrA Supports Exponential Growth of Escherichia coli

Iron is an essential micronutrient for nearly all living organisms but is toxic in excess. Consequently, the maintenance of iron homeostasis is a critical biological process, and the genes involved in this function are tightly regulated. Here, we explored a new role for the bacterial RNA binding pro...
