Rv3839-Rv3840 links the endogenous heme biosynthesis pathway with Mycobacterium tuberculosis adaptation to nitric oxide and iron limitation stress.

WT Mtb showed a trend towards decreased heme levels under iron limitation compared to control media, and a further reduction in total heme with the addition of NO stress, although this did not reach statistical significance ( Fig 6A ).
