Crystal structure of trimeric frataxin from the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, complexed with ferrous
Template:ABSTRACT PUBMED 23344952
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]
