Cryo-EM Structure of Bacterioferritin Nanocages Provides Insight into the Bio-mineralization of Ferritins

2021-02-05

Abstract excerpt

Iron is an essential element involved in various metabolic processes. The ferritin family of proteins forms nanocage assembly and are involved in iron oxidation, storage and mineralization. Although several structures of human ferritin and bacterioferritin subunits have been resolved, there is still no complete structure that shows both the trapped Fe-biomineral cluster along with the nanocage. Furthermore, wherea...
