Disease relevance of DVU2797

  • Orf6 is a cytoplasmic redox protein containing two iron-sulfur clusters, as indicated by its similarity to the ferredoxin domain of [Fe] hydrogenase from Desulfovibrio species [1].
 

High impact information on DVU2797

  • Although the genome annotation implicates a ferredoxin-dependent oxoglutarate synthase, isotopic evidence does not support flux through this reaction in either the oxidative or the reductive mode; therefore, the TCA cycle is incomplete [2].
  • The periplasmic Fe-hydrogenase from Desulfovibrio vulgaris (Hildenborough) contains three iron-sulfur prosthetic groups: two putative electron transferring [4Fe-4S] ferredoxin-like cubanes (two F-clusters), and one putative Fe/S supercluster redox catalyst (one H-cluster) [3].
 

Associations of DVU2797 with chemical compounds

  • These results, therefore, suggest that two electron-transferring ferredoxin-like [4Fe-4S] clusters are located in the NH2-terminal segment of the hydrogenase molecule [4].
