The iron-sensing aconitase B binds its own mRNA to prevent sRNA-induced mRNA cleavage
Aconitase is an iron–sulfur protein and a major enzyme of the TCA cycle that catalyzes the conversion of citrate to isocitrate under iron-rich conditions. In Escherichia coli, aconitase B (AcnB) is a typical moonlighting protein that can switch to its apo form (apo-AcnB) which favors binding its own...
