On the Origin of Iron/Sulfur Cluster Biosynthesis in Eukaryotes

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2019
Iron and sulfur are indispensable elements of every living cell, but on their own these elements are toxic and require dedicated machineries for the formation of iron/sulfur (Fe/S) clusters. In eukaryotes, proteins requiring Fe/S clusters (Fe/S proteins)

The iron-sulfur cluster assembly machineries in plants: current knowledge and open questions

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2013
Many metabolic pathways and cellular processes occurring in most sub-cellular compartments depend on the functioning of iron-sulfur (Fe-S) proteins, whose cofactors are assembled through dedicated protein machineries.

Exome sequencing identifies NFS1 deficiency in a novel Fe‐S cluster disease, infantile mitochondrial complex II/III deficiency

Molecular Genetics & Genomic Medicine, 2014
Iron‐sulfur (Fe‐S) clusters are a class of highly conserved and ubiquitous prosthetic groups with unique chemical properties that allow the proteins that contain them, Fe‐S proteins, to assist in various key biochemical pathways.

Molybdenum metabolism in plants and crosstalk to iron

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2014
In the form of molybdate the transition metal molybdenum is essential for plants as it is required by a number of enzymes that catalyze key reactions in nitrogen assimilation, purine degradation, phytohormone synthesis, and sulfite detoxification ...

Cluster and fold stability of E. coli ISC-type ferredoxin.

PLoS ONE, 2013
Iron-sulfur clusters are essential protein prosthetic groups that provide their redox potential to several different metabolic pathways. Formation of iron-sulfur clusters is assisted by a specialised machine that comprises, among other proteins, a ...

TusA influences Fe-S cluster assembly and iron homeostasis in E. coli by reducing the translation efficiency of Fur

Microbiology Spectrum
All sulfur transfer pathways have generally a l-cysteine desulfurase as an initial sulfur-mobilizing enzyme in common, which serves as a sulfur donor for the biosynthesis of numerous sulfur-containing biomolecules in the cell.
