An Overview of Selenium Uptake, Metabolism, and Toxicity in Plants.
Meetu Gupta,Shikha Gupta +1 more
TL;DR: Plants can play vital role in overcoming Se deficiency and Se toxicity in different regions of the world, hence, detailed mechanism of Se metabolism inside the plants is necessary for designing effective Se phytoremediation and biofortification strategies.

TL;DR: Fe/S protein biogenesis and cellular iron metabolism are tightly linked to coordinate iron supply and utilization.
Journal ArticleDOI
Iron/sulfur proteins biogenesis in prokaryotes: formation, regulation and diversity.
TL;DR: Basic principles and recent advances in the understanding of the prokaryotic Fe/S biogenesis ISC and SUF systems are reviewed and an effort was made to provide, based on the E. coli system, a general classification associating a given domain with a given function to help next search and annotation of genomes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Trace metal metabolism in plants.
TL;DR: This review covers most of these aspects for the essential micronutrients copper, iron, manganese, molybdenum, nickel, and zinc to provide a broader overview than found in other recent reviews, to cross-link aspects of knowledge in this very active research field.
Journal ArticleDOI
Iron cofactor assembly in plants.
TL;DR: Increased understanding of intracellular iron trafficking is opening up research into how iron is distributed between iron cofactor assembly pathways and how this distribution is regulated.

Assembly of Iron-Sulfur Clusters: IDENTIFICATION OF AN iscSUA-hscBA-fdx GENE CLUSTER FROM AZOTOBACTER VINELANDII
TL;DR: In this paper, microsequencing of oligopeptides obtained by tryptic digestion of purified IscS was used to design a strategy for isolation and DNA sequence analysis of a 7,886-base pair A. vinelandii genomic segment that includes the iscS gene.
Journal ArticleDOI
Iron-sulfur proteins: ancient structures, still full of surprises.
TL;DR: This article is a survey of the properties and functions of Fe-S proteins under the following headings: sulfur and iron; iron-sulfur clusters; evolution of cofactor use; early observations; complex and extended clusters.
