Mechanisms of iron–sulfur protein maturation in mitochondria, cytosol and nucleus of eukaryotes

Abstract: Iron-sulfur (Fe/S) clusters are important cofactors of numerous proteins involved in electron transfer, metabolic and regulatory processes. In eukaryotic cells, known Fe/S proteins are located within mitochondria, the nucleus and the cytosol. Over the past years the molecular basis of Fe/S cluster synthesis and incorporation into apoproteins in a living cell has started to become elucidated. Biogenesis of these simple inorganic cofactors is surprisingly complex and, in eukaryotes such as Saccharomyces cerevisi… Show more

“…More than 200 proteins require Fe-S clusters for their biological function, including members of the ETC complexes, enzymes, and several transcription factors to regulate gene expression. Moreover, Fe-S clusters can also act as sensors of iron and oxygen (4). Although the chemical structures of Fe-S clusters moieties appear simple, their biogenesis in a living cell is highly complex and coordinated process.…”

“…The CIA machinery comprises several proteins (10,11), among which one named Dre2 has been recently identified in yeast (12). The C-terminal domain of Dre2 (residues 228-348) is able to bind two ISCs, a [2Fe-2S] and a [4Fe-4S] (12,13).…”
