Iron-induced changes in the proteome of Trichomonas vaginalis hydrogenosomes. [PDF]
Iron plays a crucial role in metabolism as a key component of catalytic and redox cofactors, such as heme or iron-sulfur clusters in enzymes and electron-transporting or regulatory proteins.

Differentiated, promoter-specific response of [4Fe-4S] NsrR DNA-binding to reaction with nitric oxide [PDF]
NsrR is an iron-sulfur cluster protein that regulates the nitric oxide (NO) stress response of many bacteria. NsrR from Streptomyces coelicolor regulates its own expression and that of only two other genes, hmpA1 and hmpA2, which encode HmpA enzymes ...

Erythropoiesis and Iron Sulfur Cluster Biogenesis
Erythropoiesis in animals is a synchronized process of erythroid cell differentiation that depends on successful acquisition of iron. Heme synthesis depends on iron through its dependence on iron sulfur (Fe-S) cluster biogenesis.

Glutaredoxin GRXS17 associates with the cytosolic iron-sulfur cluster assembly pathway [PDF]
Cytosolic monothiol glutaredoxins (GRXs) are required in iron-sulfur (Fe-S) cluster delivery and iron sensing in yeast and mammals. In plants, it is unclear whether they have similar functions.

Escherichia coli RIC is able to donate iron to iron-sulfur clusters. [PDF]
Escherichia coli RIC (Repair of Iron Centers) is a diiron protein previously reported to be involved in the repair of iron-sulfur proteins damaged by oxidative or nitrosative stresses, and proposed to act as an iron donor.

Probing the coordination and function of Fe4S4 modules in nitrogenase assembly protein NifB
NifB is a key enzyme in the biosynthesis pathway of the nitrogenase FeMo cofactor. Here, the authors investigate the maturation of its iron-sulfur clusters by EPR and biochemical analyses, showing how individual precursor clusters participate in the ...

Pichia pastoris Fep1 is a [2Fe-2S] protein with a Zn finger that displays an unusual oxygen-dependent role in cluster binding [PDF]
Fep1, the iron-responsive GATA factor from the methylotrophic yeast Pichia pastoris, has been characterised both in vivo and in vitro. This protein has two Cys(2)-Cys(2) type zinc fingers and a set of four conserved cysteines arranged in a Cys-X-5-Cys-X ...
