The iron-dependent regulator (IdeR) is an essential protein in Mycobacterium tuberculosis that regulates iron uptake in this major pathogen. Under high iron concentrations, IdeR binds to several operator regions and represses transcription of target genes. Here, we report the first crystal structure of cobalt-activated IdeR bound to the mbtA-mbtB operator at 2.

In all cancer tissues the activity of cobalt-activated acylase was markedly increased as compared with the normal tissue. Alterations of the isoenzyme pattern of cobalt-activated acylase were found in the carcinoma of stomach and of uterus, with the increased expression of the form-1 of the enzyme.
