'''Diphtheria toxin repressor''' (DtxR) is an iron-dependent repressor which is synthesized by the diphtheria bacterium when it is in iron-poor environment. The DtxR regulates the expression of high affinity iron uptake system. <ref>PMID:12675807</ref> | '''Diphtheria toxin repressor''' (DtxR) is an iron-dependent repressor which is synthesized by the diphtheria bacterium when it is in iron-poor environment.
