Unraveling novel roles for iron-sulfur cluster trafficking proteins in Fe-S cluster and ce — NSF Award to University of South Caro

The goal of this project is to understand how organisms integrate the essential metal iron with core metabolic pathways at the cellular level. Despite the cellular requirement for iron, it is still not fully understood how essential iron-dependent metabolic pathways respond to changes in iron availability. Knowledge ga

AbstractThe goal of this project is to understand how organisms integrate the essential metal iron with core metabolic pathways at the cellular level. Despite the cellular requirement for iron, it is still not fully understood how essential iron-dependent metabolic pathways respond to changes in iron availability. Knowledge gained from this project will provide insight into the critical role of iron in organisms ranging from bacteria to humans by revealing how cellular iron balance and cell metabolism a
