Widespread distribution in pathogenic bacteria of di-iron proteins that repair oxidative and nitrosative damage to iron-sulfur centers.
Expression of two genes of unknown function, Staphylococcus aureus scdA and Neisseria gonorrhoeae dnrN, is induced by exposure to oxidative or nitrosative stress. We show that DnrN and ScdA are di-iron proteins that protect their hosts from damage caused by exposure to nitric oxide and to hydrogen peroxide. Loss of FNR-dependent activation of aniA expression and NsrR-dependent repression of nor...

15 صفحه اولIron, Oxidative Damage and Ferroptosis in Rhabdomyosarcoma
Recent data have indicated a fundamental role of iron in mediating a non-apoptotic and non-necrotic oxidative form of programmed cell death termed ferroptosis that requires abundant cytosolic free labile iron to promote membrane lipid peroxidation. Different scavenger molecules and detoxifying enzymes, such as glutathione (GSH) and glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4), have been shown to overwhelm o...
متن کاملIron-sulfur proteins: spin-coupling model for three-iron clusters.
Recent Mössbauer and EPR studies of two ferredoxins and of aconitase have given evidence for a three-iron cluster, probably of a [3Fe-3S] type. The studies of the oxidized EPR-active centers have shown that the three iron sites are characterized by significantly different magnetic hyperfine coupling constants. For the ferredoxin from Azotobacter vinelandii, for instance, we have observed A1 = -...
متن کاملThe Nramp (Slc11) proteins regulate development, resistance to pathogenic bacteria and iron homeostasis in Dictyostelium discoideum.
The Dictyostelium discoideum genome harbors two genes encoding members of the Nramp superfamily, which is conserved from bacteria (MntH proteins) to humans (Slc11 proteins). Nramps are proton-driven metal ion transporters with a preference for iron and manganese. Acquisition of these metal cations is vital for all cells, as they act as redox cofactors and regulate key cellular processes, such a...
