Iron is a chemical element; it has symbol Fe (from Latin ferrum 'iron') and atomic number 26. It is a metal that belongs to the first transition series and group 8 of the periodic table. It is, by mass, the most common element on Earth, just ahead of oxygen (32.1% and 30.1%, ...
Iron is an essential nutrient element for growth and a cofactor for various enzymes and proteins involved in key biological processes in the bacteria, in particular cellular metabolism and energy generation8. In the natural environments, iron availability is very limited due to extremely low solubility...
Iron is atrace elementintegral to multiple metabolic processes, includingDNA synthesis[157]and the metabolic demand for iron is greater in neoplastic than in normal cells[254]. Indeed, intracellulariron depletionis known to result in anti-tumour activity, prompting the development ofchelating agentstha...

a sufficient supply of essential nutrients. One key element required by the parasite is iron. Iron plays a central role in proteins essential for respiration in almost all living cells. In common with most eukaryotes,T. gondiicontains iron2which is required for a number of essential cellular ...
Iron is an essential element for a wide variety of metabolic processes such as oxygen transport, cellular respiration, and redox reactions in numerous metabolic pathways. For this reason, iron homeostasis is tightly regulated on cellular and systemic levels to ensure a balance between uptake, transpor...
Iron is an essential element for almost all living organisms; it serves as a prosthetic group for a variety of proteins, due to its high redox potential, involved in vital cellular processes, including energy metabolism, oxygen transport, detoxification of reactive oxygen species, and DNA synthesis...
Iron is a relatively abundant element in the universe. It is found in the sun and many types of stars in considerable quantity. Iron nuclei are very stable. Iron is a vital constituent of plant and animal life, and is the key component of haemoglobin. ...
