If the atmosphere of the early Earth was hydrogen-rich, 1 it is reasonable to think that
hydrogenases, the enzymes enabling cells to use molecular hydrogen, were probably …

Iron (Fe) is essential for life because of its role in protein cofactors. Photosynthesis, in
particular photosynthetic electron transport, has a very high demand for Fe cofactors. Fe is …

Advances in genome sequencing technologies have enabled researchers and breeders to
rapidly associate phenotypic variation to genome sequence differences. We recently took …

The ABC superfamily comprises both membrane-bound transporters and soluble proteins
involved in a broad range of processes, many of which are of considerable agricultural …

The solubilization and long-distance allocation of iron between organs and tissues, as well
as its subcellular compartmentalization and remobilization, involve various chelation and …

The ATP-binding cassette (ABC) protein superfamily is one of the largest known, with over
120 members in both Arabidopsis thaliana and rice (Oryza sativa). Most, but not all, ABC …

In plants iron–sulfur (Fe–S) proteins are found in the plastids, mitochondria, cytosol and
nucleus, where they are essential for numerous physiological and developmental …

Iron is an essential element for all photosynthetic organisms. The biological use of this
transition metal is as an enzyme cofactor, predominantly in electron transfer and catalysis …

Iron–sulfur (Fe–S) clusters (ISCs) are versatile, ancient co-factors of proteins that are
involved in electron transport, enzyme catalysis and regulation of gene expression. The …

We report the genome sequence of Theileria parva, an apicomplexan pathogen causing
economic losses to smallholder farmers in Africa. The parasite chromosomes exhibit limited …
