How does nature build one of the most sophisticated catalytic metal centers found in biology? An international team of ...

Iron–sulfur (Fe–S) clusters are evolutionarily conserved cofactors that support an array of DNA replication and repair enzymes. These clusters not only stabilise protein structure but also enable ...

Iron--sulfur (Fe--S) proteins, essential to all life forms, are difficult to synthesise due to the complicated molecular machinery involved and sensitivity of Fe--S clusters to oxygen. In a new study, ...

Research on Atm1 protein’s role in iron-sulfur cluster transport across membranes could improve our understanding of mitochondrial conditions. A ubiquitous protein family found in almost all ...

Iron–sulfur clusters are among the most versatile metalloclusters in nature, serving as the engines of electron transfer, catalysis and regulation in processes ranging from respiration and ...
