Intracellular iron concentration is tightly regulated to maintain cell viability.Iron plays important roles in electron transport, nucleic acid synthesis, and oxidative stress.A Mycobacterium avium subsp.paratuberculosis (MAP)-specific genomic island carries a putative metal transport operon that includes MAP3773c, which encodes a Fur-like protein.
