We apologize for Proteopedia being slow to respond. For the past two years, a new implementation of Proteopedia has been being built. Soon, it will replace this 18-year old system. All existing content will be moved to the new system at a date that will be announced here.

'''Role of <scene name='10/1077482/Fes_proper/1'>FeS </scene> Cluster'''
The role of the iron sulfur cluster is highly debated. One of main views it that the cluster is involved in scanning for lesions. Researchers found that oxidizing the FeS cluster in hNTHL1 from [4Fe-4S]^2+ to [4Fe-4S]^3+ increases its binding to DNA. When a mismatch such as C:A is introduced, this can disrupt DNA charge transport causing the reduction of the iron sulfur cluster to not occur leaving Nth bound. The proposed mechanism is that in undamaged DNA, electrons can travel along the helix and reduce the iron-sulfur cluster, lowering Nth’s affinity and allowing it to move on. But if CT is disrupted by damage, the cluster stays oxidized, keeping Nth bound at the site to continue searching for lesions. Another view is that the FeS cluster plays a role as a structural scaffold which is used for the stabilizing the interaction with DNA upon recognizing damage .
