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.

Publication Abstract from PubMed
The 2.3 A resolution crystal structure of a [2Fe-2S] cluster containing ferredoxin from Aquifex aeolicus reveals a thioredoxin-like fold that is novel among iron-sulfur proteins. The [2Fe-2S] cluster is located near the surface of the protein, at a site corresponding to that of the active-site disulfide bridge in thioredoxin. The four cysteine ligands are located near the ends of two surface loops. Two of these ligands can be substituted by non-native cysteine residues introduced throughout a stretch of the polypeptide chain that forms a protruding loop extending away from the cluster. The presence of homologs of this ferredoxin as components of more complex anaerobic and aerobic electron transfer systems indicates that this is a versatile fold for biological redox processes.
