Function

[FRDA_YEAST] Promotes the biosynthesis of heme as well as the assembly and repair of iron-sulfur clusters by delivering Fe(2+) to proteins involved in these pathways. Plays a role in the protection against iron-catalyzed oxidative stress through its ability to catalyze the oxidation of Fe(2+) to Fe(3+). Can store large amounts of the metal in the form of a ferrihydrite mineral by oligomerization. May be involved in regulation of the mitochondrial electron transport chain.^[1] ^[2] ^[3] ^[4] ^[5] ^[6]

Publication Abstract from PubMed

Defects in the mitochondrial protein frataxin are responsible for Friedreich ataxia, a neurodegenerative and cardiac disease that affects 1:40,000 children. Here, we present the crystal structures of the iron-free and iron-loaded frataxin trimers, and a single-particle electron microscopy reconstruction of a 24 subunit oligomer. The structures reveal fundamental aspects of the frataxin mechanism. The trimer has a central channel in which one atom of iron binds. Two conformations of the channel with different metal-binding affinities suggest that a gating mechanism controls whether the bound iron is delivered to other proteins or transferred to detoxification sites. The trimer constitutes the basic structural unit of the 24 subunit oligomer. The architecture of this oligomer and several features of the trimer structure demonstrate striking similarities to the iron-storage protein ferritin. The data reveal how stepwise assembly provides frataxin with the structural flexibility to perform two functions: metal delivery and detoxification.

The structures of frataxin oligomers reveal the mechanism for the delivery and detoxification of iron.,Karlberg T, Schagerlof U, Gakh O, Park S, Ryde U, Lindahl M, Leath K, Garman E, Isaya G, Al-Karadaghi S Structure. 2006 Oct;14(10):1535-46. PMID:17027502^[7]
