Transcriptome remodeling drives acclimation to iron availability in the marine N2-fixing cyanobacterium Trichodesmium erythraeum IMS101 by Xin Zhong, Ran Duan, Shengwei Hou, Meng Chen, Xiaoming Tan, Wolfgang R. Hess, Tuo Shi

“…This feedback loop is reinforced by substitutive expression of functionally equivalent or competitive genes depending on Fe availability, as well as co-expression of multiple Fe stress inducible isiA genes, an adaptive strategy evolved to elicit the Fe-responsive cascade. The study provides a genome-wide perspective on the acclimation of a prominent marine diazotroph to Fe availability, reveals an upgraded portfolio of indicator genes that can be used to better assess Fe status in the environment, and predicts scenarios of how marine diazotrophs may be affected in the future ocean.IMPORTANCEThe scarcity of trace metal iron (Fe) in global oceans has a great impact on phytoplankton growth. …”
