Abstract excerpt

Proteins of the ferritin family are ubiquitous in living organisms. With their spherical cage-like structures they are the iron storehouses in cells. Subfamilies of ferritins include 24-meric ferritins and bacterioferritins (maxiferritins), and 12-meric Dps (miniferritins). Dps safeguards DNA by direct binding, affording physical protection and safeguards from free radical-mediated damage by sequestering iron in...
