In protozoa such as and iron affects the growth, pathogenicity mechanisms, and expression of virulence genes. One of the proposed iron regulatory mechanisms is at the post-transcriptional level through an IRE/IRP-like (iron responsive element/iron regulatory protein) system.

Fractionation of the ME based on the αGI activity (IC in µg/mL) showed that quercetin-3--β-glucoside (131.1), isorhamnetin-3--β-glucoside (166.
