Background: Organisms must balance their iron requirement to achieve iron homeostasis. This is achieved through several mechanisms, including sequestration of excess cellular iron by iron-storage proteins, Escherichia coli contain three iron-storage proteins act as an iron source under iron restriction. Aim: to investigate the respective functions of Dps and to determine whether this protein is mu...
