Molecular basis of function and the unusual antioxidant activity of a cyanobacterial cysteine desulfurase.

The Biochemical journal - 6 Jul 2017

Banerjee Manisha, Chakravarty Dhiman, Ballal Anand

Abstract excerpt

Cysteine desulfurases, which supply sulfur for iron-sulfur cluster biogenesis, are broadly distributed in all phyla including cyanobacteria, the progenitors of plant chloroplasts. The SUF (sulfur utilization factor) system is responsible for Fe-S cluster biosynthesis under stress. The suf operon from cyanobacterium Anabaena PCC 7120 showed the presence of a cysteine desulfurase, sufS (alr2495), but not the...
