The Dynamics of Iron in Miniferritins : A Structure-Function Connection

The Dynamics of Iron in Miniferritins : A Structure-Function Connection

The DNA binding proteins under starvation (Dps) from M. smegmatis are cage-like structures which internalize iron and bind DNA. They provide resistance to the cells from free radical damage, and physically protect the DNA from the harmful effects of reactive oxygen species by DNA compaction. The wor...
