From Proteopedia
Contents |
Mycobacterium tuberculosis ferritin homolog, BfrB
Template:ABSTRACT PUBMED 21139218
Function
[BFRB_MYCTU] Iron-storage protein that displays ferroxidase activity, catalyzing the oxidation of Fe(2+) ions into Fe(3+) ions, that can then be deposited as a ferric-oxide mineral core within the central cavity of the protein complex.[1]
