Iron deprivation in bacteria causes the derepression of genes controlled by the ferric uptake regulator (Fur). The present microarray analysis of iron-starved Bacillus subtilis cells grown in minimal medium unveils additional physiological effects on a large number of genes linked to stringent-response regulation and to genes involved in amino acid biosynthesis associated with pathways essential for bacillibactin production.
细菌中的铁剥夺会导致受铁摄取调节因子(Fur)控制的基因去阻遏。目前对在基本培养基中生长的铁饥饿枯草芽孢杆菌细胞进行的微阵列分析揭示了对大量与严格反应调节相关的基因以及与杆菌肽合成必需途径相关的氨基酸生物合成相关基因的额外生理影响。
