Disease relevance of NBP35

 

High impact information on NBP35

  • Moreover, defects in the de novo maturation of various cytosolic and nuclear Fe/S proteins were observed in the absence of Nbp35p, demonstrating the functional involvement of Nbp35p in the biogenesis of extramitochondrial Fe/S proteins [2].
  • The assembly of cytosolic and nuclear iron-sulfur (Fe/S) proteins in yeast is dependent on the iron-sulfur cluster assembly and export machineries in mitochondria and three recently identified extramitochondrial proteins, the P-loop NTPases Cfd1 and Nbp35 and the hydrogenase-like Nar1 [3].
  • A single amino-acid substitution in the conserved nucleotide-binding motif of Nbp35p renders the protein non-functional [1].
  • Sequence analysis revealed structural homology of Nbp35p with a family of bacterial ATPases involved in cell division processes and chromosome partitioning [1].
 

Associations of NBP35 with chemical compounds

  • Using in vivo and in vitro approaches, we found that the soluble P-loop NTPases Cfd1 and Nbp35 form a complex and bind up to three [4Fe-4S] clusters, one at the N terminus of Nbp35 and one each at a new C-terminal cysteine-rich motif present in both proteins [4].
 

Other interactions of NBP35

  • In contrast, repression of NAR1, CFD1, or NBP35 fails to induce the iron regulon despite strong inhibition of cytosolic/nuclear Fe-S protein assembly [5].
