: The study detailed how yeast cells (and by extension, human cells) use these transporters to survive in zinc-deficient environments. When zinc is scarce, the cell "turns on" high-affinity transporters to grab every available bit of the metal.

: A recent report (Issue 379) discusses the association between molecular initiating events and drug-induced hiccups , using FDA data to find pathways for adverse drug reactions.

"JB 379" typically refers to the (often abbreviated as J.Bact. 179 or JB 179). A standout report from this specific volume is the study on the ZIP family of metal transporters (specifically the ZRT1 and ZRT2 genes), which fundamentally changed how scientists understand how cells regulate essential minerals like zinc.
