The fern genus Pteris is one group of plants known to accumulate large amounts of this element within its cells.
The fern genus Pteris is one group of plants known to accumulate large amounts of this element within its cells. The trioxide of this element has been approved for treatment of unresponsive acute promyelocytic leukemia. Another molecule containing this element binds adjacent sulfhydryl groups on the dihydrolipoamide portion of pyruvate dehydrogenase, thereby inactivating it. An organic compound containing this element was discovered to be effective against syphilis by Paul Ehrlich, and this element also forms a compound with (*) gallium in a commonly-used semiconductor. For 10 points, name this element that possibly replaces all the phosphorus in the bacterial strain GFAJ-1 recently discovered by NASA, an element found in many toxic compounds such as Paris Green with symbol As.
