Journal ArticleDOI
RNA silencing of hydrogenase(-like) genes and investigation of their physiological roles in the green alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii.
TL;DR: It is indicated that HYD3, like its yeast and human homologues, has an evolutionary conserved role in the biogenesis or maintenance of cytosolic Fe-S proteins.
Journal ArticleDOI
Genome Analysis of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii Reveals The Existence of Multiple, Compartmentalized Iron–Sulfur Protein Assembly Machineries of Different Evolutionary Origins
James E. Godman,Janneke Balk +1 more
TL;DR: Comparison with the higher plant model Arabidopsis indicated a strong degree of conservation of Fe–S cofactor assembly pathways in the green lineage, the pathways being derived from different origins during the evolution of the photosynthetic eukaryote.
Journal ArticleDOI
The stage of seed development influences iron bioavailability in pea (Pisum sativum L.).
Katie L. Moore,Ildefonso Rodríguez-Ramiro,Eleanor R. Jones,Emily J. Jones,Jorge Rodríguez-Celma,Jorge Rodríguez-Celma,K. Halsey,Claire Domoney,Peter R. Shewry,Susan J. Fairweather-Tait,Janneke Balk,Janneke Balk +11 more
TL;DR: The data show that immature peas and mature dry peas contain similar levels of ferritin-iron, which is destabilized during cooking, however, iron from immature peas is more bioavailable because of lower phytic acid levels compared to mature peas.
Book ChapterDOI
Investigation of iron-sulfur protein maturation in eukaryotes.
Oliver Stehling,Paul M. Smith,Annette Biederbick,Janneke Balk,Janneke Balk,Roland Lill,Ulrich Mühlenhoff +6 more
TL;DR: Assays for the analysis of de novo Fe-sulfur cluster and heme formation, cellular iron homeostasis, and the activity of Fe-S cluster- and heME-containing enzymes are described, which are crucial to elucidate the mechanisms underlying the maturation ofFe-S proteins and may aid in the identification of new members of this evolutionary ancient process.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nar1p, a conserved eukaryotic protein with similarity to Fe-only hydrogenases, functions in cytosolic iron-sulphur protein biogenesis.
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that Nar1p has an essential role in the maturation of cytosolic and nuclear, but not of mitochondrial, Fe-S proteins, and a complex biochemical pathway of extra-mitochondrialFe-S protein biogenesis involving unique eukaryotic proteins is suggested.
