Description: The plant cytochrome b6f is located in the thylakoid membrane and functions in both linear and cyclic electron transport, providing ATP and NADPH for photosynthetic carbon fixation. The cytochrome b6f complex has eight different subunits, six being encoded in the chloroplast genome (PetA [cyt f], PetB [cyt b6], PetD, PetG, PetL, and PetN) and two in the nucleus (PetC [Rieske FeS]and PetM. The complex functions as a dimer []. In cyanobacteria, the cytochrome b6f complex contains four large subunits, including cytochrome f, cytochrome b6, the Rieske iron-sulfur protein (ISP), and subunit IV; as well as four small hydrophobic subunits, PetG, PetL, PetM, and PetN []. This entry represents the Rieske FeS protein (encoded by the PetC gene) of the cytochrome b6f complex from plants and cyanobacteria. The Rieske subunit acts by binding plastoquinol anion, transferring an electron to the 2Fe-2S cluster, then releasing the electron to thecytochrome f haem iron. The 2Fe-2S cluster is bound in the highly conserved C-terminal region of the Rieske subunit. In plants, Rieske FeS is required for the successful assembly of the b6f complex and is essential for photosynthesis [, ].

Description: This domain (previously known as DUF59) is found in proteins that are mostly defined as members of the MIP18 family. This includes iron-sulfur cluster carrier proteins, where the domain is found in the N terminus. This domain is also found in protein AE7 from Arabidopsis and its homologues. Protein AE7 is thought to be a central member of the cytosolic iron-sulfur (Fe-S) protein assembly (CIA) pathway, however protein AE7-like 1 and 2 (also containing this domain) are probably not involved in this pathway []. MIP18 family protein YHR122W (CIA2) from S. cerevisiae is a component of the CIA machinery, and acts at a late step of Fe-S cluster assembly []. The SufT protein from Staphylococcus aureus is composed of this domain solely and is involved in the maturation of FeS proteins [].

Description: This entry represents the FpoO subunit of membrane-bound multi-subunit F420H2 dehydrogenase, which oxidises the reduced coenzyme F420H2 to coenzyme F420 and feeds the electrons via an FeS cluster into an energy-conserving electron transport chain [, ]. This enzyme plays a role in the methanogenic pathway in methanogenic archaea. Reduced coenzyme F420H2 is the major cytoplasmic electron carrier of methanogens and a reversible hydride donor, much like NADH []. F420H2 + COB-S-S-CoM = F420 + CoM-SH + CoB-SHWhere CoB-S-S-CoM (the heterosulphide of 2-mercaptoethanesulphonate and 7-mercaptoheptanoylthreonine phosphate) is the terminal electron acceptor of the methanogenic pathway, and is reduced with the concomitant generation of a transmembrane proton potential and ATP synthesis. The FpoO subunit of F420H2 dehydrogenase probably participates in the reduction of methanophenazine, where it acts as a special mechanism for the reduction of the methanogenic cofactor [].

Description: The eukaryotic proteins in this entry include frataxin, the protein that is mutated in Friedreich's ataxia [], and related sequences. Friedreich's ataxia is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder caused by loss of function mutations in the gene encoding frataxin (FRDA). Frataxin mRNA is predominantly expressed in tissues with a high metabolic rate (including liver, kidney, brown fat and heart). Mouse and yeast frataxin homologues contain a potential N-terminal mitochondrial targeting sequence, and human frataxin has been observed to co-localise with a mitochondrial protein. Furthermore, disruption of the yeast gene has been shown to result in mitochondrial dysfunction. Friedreich's ataxia is thus believed to be a mitochondrial disease caused by a mutation in the nuclear genome (specifically, expansion of an intronic GAA triplet repeat) [, , ].The bacterial proteins in this entry are iron-sulphur cluster (FeS) metabolism CyaY proteins homologous to eukaryotic frataxin. Partial Phylogenetic Profiling []suggests that CyaY most likely functions as part of the ISC system for FeS cluster biosynthesis, and is supported by expermimental data in some species [, ].

Description: Ribonucleotide reductase (RNR), also known as ribonucleoside diphosphate reductase, () [, ]catalyses the reductive synthesisof deoxyribonucleotides from their corresponding ribonucleotides:2'-deoxyribonucleoside diphosphate + oxidized thioredoxin + H2O = ribonucleoside diphosphate + reduced thioredoxinRNR provides the precursors necessary for DNA synthesis. RNRs divide into three classes on the basis of their metallocofactor usage. Class I RNRs, found in eukaryotes, bacteria, bacteriophage and viruses, use adiiron-tyrosyl radical, Class II RNRs, found in bacteria,bacteriophage, algae and archaea, use coenzyme B12(adenosylcobalamin, AdoCbl). Class III RNRs, found inanaerobic bacteria and bacteriophage, use an FeS cluster andS-adenosylmethionine to generate a glycyl radical. Manyorganisms have more than one class of RNR present in theirgenomes. Class I ribonucleotide reductase is an oligomeric enzyme composed of a large subunit (700 to 1000 residues) and a small subunit (300 to 400 residues) - class II RNRs are less complex, using the small molecule B12 in place of the small chain []. The small chain binds two iron atoms [](three Glu, one Asp, and two His areinvolved in metal binding) and contains an active site tyrosine radical. Theregions of the sequence that contain the metal-binding residues and the activesite tyrosine are conserved in ribonucleotide reductase small chain fromprokaryotes, eukaryotes and viruses.This family consist of the small subunit of class I ribonucleotide reductases. It also includes R2-like ligand-binding oxidase, which is homologous to the ribonucleotide reductase small subunit (R2), but whose function is still unknown [, ].

Description: This entry represents anaerobic, class III ribonucleotide reductase. The mechanism of the enzyme involves a glycine-centred radical[], a C-terminal zinc binding site [], and a set of conserved active site cysteines and asparagines []. This enzyme requires an activating component, NrdG, a radical-SAM domain containing enzyme (). Together the two form an alpha-2/beta-2 heterodimer.Ribonucleotide reductase (RNR) catalyzes the reductive synthesis of deoxyribonucleotides from their corresponding ribonucleotides. It provides the precursors necessary for DNA synthesis. RNRs are separated into three classes based on their metallocofactor usage. Class I RNRs, found in eukaryotes, bacteria, and bacteriophage, use a diiron-tyrosyl radical. Class II RNRs, found in bacteria, bacteriophage, algae and archaea, use coenzyme B12 (adenosylcobalamin, AdoCbl). Class III RNRs, found in strict or facultative anaerobic bacteria, bacteriophage, and archaea, use an FeS cluster and S-adenosylmethionine to generate a glycyl radical []. Many organisms have more than one class of RNR present in their genomes. All three RNRs have a ten-stranded α-β barrel domain that is structurally similar to the domain of PFL (pyruvate formate lyase) []. The class III enzyme from phage T4 consists of two subunits, this model covers the larger subunit which contains the active and allosteric sites.

Description: NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductase (complex I) () is a respiratory-chain enzyme that catalyses the transfer of two electrons from NADH to ubiquinone in a reaction that is associated with proton translocation across the membrane (NADH + ubiquinone = NAD+ + ubiquinol) []. Complex I is a major source of reactive oxygen species (ROS) that are predominantly formed by electron transfer from FMNH(2). Complex I is found in bacteria, cyanobacteria (as a NADH-plastoquinone oxidoreductase), archaea [], mitochondria, and in the hydrogenosome, a mitochondria-derived organelle. In general, the bacterial complex consists of 14 different subunits, while the mitochondrial complex contains homologues to these subunits in addition to approximately 31 additional proteins [].Mitochondrial complex I, which is located inthe inner mitochondrial membrane, is the largest multimeric respiratory enzyme in the mitochondria, consisting of more than 45 subunits, one FMN co-factor and eight FeS clusters []. The assembly of mitochondrial complex I is an intricate process that requires the cooperation of the nuclear and mitochondrial genomes [, ].This entry represents the ESSS subunit from mitochondrial NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductase (complex I).

Description: XMAP215/Dis1 proteins, such as Alp14 and XMAP215, increase microtubules dynamic polymerization rates by recruiting soluble alpha/beta-tubulin via their conserved TOG domains to polymerizing microtubule plus ends [, ]. A TOG domain contains HEAT repeats.This entry represents a structural domain with an armadillo (ARM)-like fold, consisting of a multi-helical fold comprised of two curved layers of α- helices arranged in a regular right-handed superhelix, where the repeats that make up this structure are arranged about a common axis []. These superhelical structures present an extensive solvent-accessible surface that is well suited to binding large substrates such as proteins and nucleic acids. Domains and repeats with an ARM-like fold have been found in a number of proteins, including:ARM repeat domain, found in beta-catenins, importins, karyopherin and exportins.HEAT repeat domain, found in protein phosphatase 2a and initiation factor eIF4G.PHAT domain, found in the RNA-binding protein Smaug.Leucine-rich repeat variant, which contain an FeS cluster.Pumilio repeat domain, found in Pumilio protein.Regulatory subunit H of V-type ATPases.PBS lyase HEAT-like repeat.Mo25 protein.MIF4G domain-like, found in eukaryotic initiation factor eIF4G, translation initiation factor eIF-2b epsilon and nuclear cap-binding protein CBP80.The N-terminal domain of eukaryotic translation initiation factor 3 subunit 12.The C-terminal domain of leukotriene A4 hydrolase.The helical domain of phosphoinositide 3-kinase.The N-terminal fragment of adaptin alpha-C and beta subunits.The proximal leg segment and the linker domain of the clathrin heavy chain.The sequence similarity among these different repeats or domains is low, however they exhibit considerable structural similarity. Furthermore, the number of repeats present in the superhelical structure can vary between orthologues, indicating that rapid loss/gain of repeats has occurred frequently in evolution. A common phylogenetic origin has been proposed for the armadillo and HEAT repeats [].
