Protein lipoylation in mitochondria requires Fe-S cluster assembly factors NFU4 and NFU5. [PDF]

open access: yesPlant Physiol, 2022
Abstract Plants have evolutionarily conserved NifU (NFU)-domain proteins that are targeted to plastids or mitochondria. “Plastid-type” NFU1, NFU2, and NFU3 in Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) play a role in iron–sulfur (Fe–S) cluster assembly in this organelle, whereas the type-II NFU4 and NFU5 proteins have not been subjected to ...

Role of ferredoxin 1 (FDX1) in cancer and its therapeutic potential [PDF]

open access: yesCancer Pathogenesis and Therapy
Ferredoxin 1 (FDX1) is a small iron-sulfur (Fe–S) cluster protein localized to the mitochondria. It functions as an electron carrier in diverse metabolic pathways and is critically involved in the regulation of protein lipoylation Accumulating evidence ...

Ferredoxins: master regulators in mitochondrial redox homeostasis and programmed cell death [PDF]

open access: yesRedox Biology
Ferredoxins (FDXs) are evolutionarily conserved iron-sulfur (Fe–S) proteins that serve as master regulators of mitochondrial redox homeostasis, governing critical processes including electron transfer, energy metabolism, Fe–S cluster biogenesis, and ...

Cuproptosis key gene FDX1 is a prognostic biomarker and associated with immune infiltration in glioma

open access: yesFrontiers in Medicine, 2022
Recent studies have found that the protein encoded by the FDX1 gene is involved in mediating Cuproptosis as a regulator of protein lipoylation and related to immune response process of tumors.

Chemical Probes Reveal Sirt2’s New Function as a Robust “Eraser” of Lysine Lipoylation

open access: yes, 2019
Lysine lipoylation, a highly conserved lysine post-translational modification, plays a critical role in regulating cell metabolism. The catalytic activity of a number of vital metabolic proteins, such as pyruvate dehydrogenase (PDH), depends on lysine ...

A unique lipoylation system in the Archaea [PDF]

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, 2009
Members of the 2-oxoacid dehydrogenase multienzyme complex family play a key role in the pathways of central metabolism. Post-translational lipoylation of the dihydrolipoyl acyltransferase component of these complexes is essential for their activity, the lipoyllysine moiety performing the transfer of substrates and intermediates between the different ...

Loss of the mitochondrial SAM transporter reveals a lipoylation-dependent metabolic vulnerability in the postnatal heart. [PDF]

open access: yesSci Adv
The neonatal heart experiences rapid metabolic growth after birth to meet increasing energetic and biosynthetic demands. How mitochondrial cofactor availability limits this transition remains unclear.

Evidence for two protein‐lipoylation activities in Escherichia coli [PDF]

open access: yesFEBS Letters, 1991
The lipoate acyltransferase subunits of the 2‐oxo acid dehydrogenase complexes are post‐translationally modified with one or more covalently‐bound lipoyl cofactors. Two distinct lipoate‐protein ligase activities, LPL‐A and LPL‐B, have been detected in E. coli by their ability to modify purified lipoyl apo‐domains of the bacterial pyruvate dehydrogenase

Lipoylation Mechanism of P. Falciparum Mitochondrial Proteins [PDF]

open access: yesBiophysical Journal, 2015
Lipoate is an essential cofactor for the aerobic metabolism in oxidative decarboxylation reactions of 2-oxoacid complexes. Malaria parasite survival is highly dependent on scavenging this essential cofactor from the human host. Scavenged lipoate is subsequently attached to the α-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase (KDH), the branched chain α-ketoacid ...
