Bacterioferritins constitute a subfamily of heme ferritins, proteins involved in iron storage and homeostasis. The protein isolated from Desulfovibrio desulfuricans ATCC 27774 is a homodimer of mass 52 kDa. The monomers are linked by an iron-coproporphyrin group and each monomer contains a diferric center. The 24-monomer clusters found in the crystal are probably the functional particles. MAD d...
The understanding of the in vitro mechanisms of ferritin iron incorporation has greatly increased in recent years with the studies of recombinant and mutant ferritins. However, little is known about how this protein functions in vivo, mainly because of the lack of cellular models in which ferritin expression can be modulated independently from iron. To this aim, primate fibroblastoid COS-7 cell...
Iron is thought to enter the ferritin cavity via the three-fold channel, which is lined in its narrowest part by the residues Asp-131 and Glu-134. We describe here variants of human ferritins with active and inactive ferroxidase centres having Asp-131 and Glu-134 substituted with Ala and Ala or with Ile and Phe respectively. The two types of substitution had similar effects on ferritin function...
Friedreich ataxia (FA) is an autosomal recessive disease with a complex neurological phenotype, but the most common cause of death is heart failure. This study presents a systematic analysis of 15 fixed and 13 frozen archival autopsy tissues of FA hearts and 10 normal controls (8 frozen) by measurement of cardiomyocyte hypertrophy; tissue frataxin assay; X-ray fluorescence (XRF) of iron (Fe) an...
Dps (DNA protection during starvation) proteins, mini-ferritins in the ferritin superfamily, catalyze Fe(2+)/H(2)O(2)/O(2) reactions and make minerals inside protein nanocages to minimize radical oxygen-chemistry (metal/osmotic/temperature/nutrient/oxidant) and sometimes to confer virulence. Paired Dps proteins in Bacillus, rare in other bacteria, have 60% sequence identity. To explore function...
