The Functionality of the three-sited Ferroxidase center of E. coli Bacterial Ferritin (EcFtnA) [PDF]

, 2014
At least three ferritins are found in the bacterium Escherichia coli, the heme-containing bacterioferritin (EcBFR) and two non-heme bacterial ferritins (EcFtnA and EcFtnB).

Reaction of O2 with a di-iron protein generates a mixed valent Fe2+/Fe3+ center and peroxide [PDF]

, 2019
The gene encoding the cyanobacterial ferritin SynFtn is up-regulated in response to copper stress. Here, we show that, while SynFtn does not interact directly with copper, it is highly unusual in several ways.

Structural characterization of encapsulated ferritin provides insight into iron storage in bacterial nanocompartments

eLife, 2016
Ferritins are ubiquitous proteins that oxidise and store iron within a protein shell to protect cells from oxidative damage. We have characterized the structure and function of a new member of the ferritin superfamily that is sequestered within an ...

Quantification of Ferritin from Staple Food Crops [PDF]

, 2009
Ferritin-iron has been shown to be as bioavailable as ferrous sulfate in humans. Thus, biofortification to breed crops with high ferritin content is a promising strategy to alleviate the global iron deficiency problem. Although ferritin is present in all
