Here we show that transcription repression mediated by heme-bound REV- ERBs is reversed by the addition of nitric oxide (NO), and that the heme and NO effects are mediated by the C-terminal ligand-binding domain (LBD). A 1.9 A˚ crystal structure of the REV-ERBb LBD, in complex with the oxidized Fe(III) form of heme, shows that heme binds in a prototypical NR ligand-binding pocket, where the heme iron is coordinately bound by histidine 568 and cysteine 384.

L'expression de l'ARNm de l'hepcidine HAMP est contrôlée par deux voies principales, la voix de signalisation inflammatoire et la voie de détection en fer, BMP/SMAD4. Il a été rapporté que MyD88, la protéine adaptatrice impliquée dans l'activation des cytokines via la stimulation des récepteurs toll-like (TLRs), contribue à l'expression de l'hepcidine dans la voie inflammatoire.

We 15 demonstrate by electrochemical and whole-cell electron paramagnetic resonance experiments that 16 Rev-Erbβ exists in the Fe3+ form within the cell essentially allowing the protein to be heme-replete 17 even at low concentrations of labile heme in the nucleus.
