Abstract/OtherAbstract:
Iron-sulfur (Fe/S) proteins are a class of ubiquitous components that assist in vital and diverse biochemical tasks in virtually every living cell. These tasks include respiration, iron homeostasis and gene expression. The past decade has led to the discovery of novel Fe/S proteins and insights into how their Fe/S cofactors are formed and incorporated into apoproteins. This review summarizes our current knowledge of mammalian Fe/S proteins, diseases related to deficiencies in these proteins and on disorders stemming from their defective biogenesis. Understanding both the physiological functions of Fe/S proteins and how Fe/S clusters are formed will undoubtedly enhance our ability to identify and treat known disorders of Fe/S cluster biogenesis and to recognize hitherto undescribed Fe/S cluster-related diseases.
