Phenolic compounds induce ferroptosis-like death by promoting hydroxyl radical generation in the Fenton reaction

Abstract Phenolic compounds are industrially versatile chemicals, also the most ubiquitous pollutants. Recently, biosynthesis and biodegradation of phenols has attracted increasing attention, while phenols’ toxicity is a major issue. Here, we evolved phloroglucinol-tolerant Escherichia coli strains...
