Cytochrome c maturation and heme biosynthesis are central processes underpinning cellular respiration and energy conversion. In these pathways, heme – an iron‐containing porphyrin – is covalently ...

The amino acid glutamine plays an unexpected role in erythropoiesis, the differentiation of erythroid progenitor cells into mature red blood cells. Ordinarily, glutamine is broken down by stem cells ...

Higher intake of heme iron, the type found in red meat and other animal products -- as opposed to non-heme iron, found mostly in plant-based foods -- was associated with a higher risk of developing ...
