Microbial iron management mechanisms in extremely acidic environments: comparative genomics evidence for diversity and versatility

BACKGROUND: Iron is an essential nutrient but can be toxic at high intracellular concentrations and organisms have evolved tightly regulated mechanisms for iron uptake and homeostasis. Information on iron management mechanisms is available for organisms living at circumneutral pH. However, very litt...
