IPR000361

Description

IPR000361 is a FeS cluster biogenesis.

<p>The proteins in this entry are variously annotated as iron-sulphur cluster insertion protein or Fe/S biogenesis protein. They appear to be involved in Fe-S cluster biogenesis. This family includes IscA, HesB, ErpA and SufA-like proteins. The hesB gene is expressed only under nitrogen fixation conditions [[cite:PUB00003602]]. IscA, an 11kDa member of the hesB family of proteins, binds iron and [2Fe-2S] clusters, and participates in the biosynthesis of iron-sulphur proteins. IscA is able to bind at least 2 iron ions per dimer [[cite:PUB00030961]].</p> <p>Other members of this family include various hypothetical proteins that also contain the NifU-like domain ([interpro:IPR001075]) suggesting that they too are able to bind iron and are involved in Fe-S cluster biogenesis. The HesB family are found in species as divergent as Homo sapiens (Human) and Haemophilus influenzae suggesting that these proteins are involved in basic cellular functions [[cite:PUB00003442]].</p>
