MeSH headings : Base Sequence; Ferritins / genetics; Genes, Reporter; Glucuronidase / genetics; Iron / metabolism; Iron-Regulatory Proteins; Iron-Sulfur Proteins / metabolism; Luciferases / genetics; Molecular Sequence Data; Mutagenesis, Insertional; Plant Leaves; Promoter Regions, Genetic; RNA, Messenger / genetics; RNA-Binding Proteins / metabolism; Recombinant Proteins / biosynthesis; Sequence Deletion; Soybeans / genetics
topics (OpenAlex): Plant Micronutrient Interactions and Effects; Iron Metabolism and Disorders; Trace Elements in Health
TL;DR: DNA and DNA were used to show that an 86-base pair fragment controlled iron-mediated derepression of the ferritin gene, and FRE/factor binding was abrogated by increased tissue iron, in analogy to mRNA (IRE)/iron regulatory protein in animals. (via Semantic Scholar)
