Journal ArticleDOI

IscU as a scaffold for iron-sulfur cluster biosynthesis: sequential assembly of [2Fe-2S] and [4Fe-4S] clusters in IscU.

TL;DR: The ability to assemble both [2Fe-2S](2+) and [4Fe-4S]-2+) clusters in IscU supports the proposal that this ubiquitous protein provides a scaffold for IscS-mediated assembly of clusters that are subsequently used for maturation of apo Fe-S proteins.
Journal ArticleDOI

IscA, an Alternate Scaffold for Fe−S Cluster Biosynthesis†

TL;DR: It is proposed that the IscA family of proteins provide alternative scaffolds to the NifU and IscU proteins for mediating nif-specific and general Fe-S cluster assembly.
Journal ArticleDOI

Formation and Properties of [4Fe-4S] Clusters on the IscU Scaffold Protein†

TL;DR: The results suggest that reductive coupling of adjacent [2Fe-2S]2+ clusters assembled on IscU provides a general mechanism for the final step in the biosynthesis of [4Fe-4S]3+ clusters, which may provide an effective way to populate appropriately cluster-loaded forms of Isc U for maturation of different types of [Fe-S] proteins.
Journal ArticleDOI

Direct spectroscopic and kinetic evidence for the involvement of a peroxodiferric intermediate during the ferroxidase reaction in fast ferritin mineralization

TL;DR: The proposal that a single protein site, with a structure homologous to the diiron centers in MMOH and R2, is involved in the ferritin ferroxidation step is confirmed by the observed kinetics, spectroscopic properties, and purity of the initial peroxodiferric species formed in the frog M ferritIn.
Journal ArticleDOI

Coordination of adenosylmethionine to a unique iron site of the [4Fe-4S] of pyruvate formate-lyase activating enzyme: a Mössbauer spectroscopic study.

TL;DR: A dual-iron-isotope (56Fe/57Fe) approach is employed to demonstrate the existence of a unique Fe site in the [4Fe-4S] cluster of PFL-AE by Mössbauer spectroscopy, indicating that AdoMet coordination is a necessary prerequisite to adenosyl radical generation.
