DNA microarrays were used to probe the transcriptional response of Escherichia coli to N,N,N',N'-tetrakis(2-pyridylmethyl)ethylenediamine (TPEN). Fifty-five transcripts were significantly up-regulated, including all of the genes that are regulated by Zur and many that are regulated by Fur. In the same TPEN-treated cells, 46 transcripts were significantly down-regulated.
