Ferritins are nearly ubiquitous iron storage proteins playing a fundamental role in iron metabolism. They are composed of 24 subunits forming a spherical protein shell encompassing a central iron storage cavity. The iron storage mechanism involves th

The high-resolution structure of the non-haem ferritin from Escherichia coli (EcFtnA) is presented together with those of its Fe3+ and Zn2+ derivatives, this being the first high-resolution X-ray analysis of the iron centres in any ferritin. The bind

Iron storage in the ferritin of Escherichia coli (EcFtnA) involves (1) the catalytic oxidation of 2Fe(II) at a dinuclear centre (sites A and B) and of a single Fe(II) at a nearby site C; (2) the formation of oxo-bridged Fe(III) dimers (designated ‘

The ferritin of Escherichia coli (EcFtnA) is similar to human H-chain ferritin (HuHF) in having 24 subunits, each containing a dinuclear site at which two iron atoms can be oxidised (the diiron centre). In EcFtnA, unlike HuHF, fluorescence quenching

The ferroxidase activity of human ferritin has previously been associated with a diiron site situated centrally within the four-helix bundle of H-type chains (HuHF). However, direct information about the site of Fe(II) binding has been lacking, and e

Ferritin molecules contain 24 polypeptide chains folded as four-helix bundles and arranged as a hollow shell capable of storing up to 4500 Fe(III) atoms. H chains contain ferroxidase centres which lie within the bundle, about 12 A (1.2 nm) from the o

This paper describes a preliminary investigation of the mechanisms of Fe(II) oxidation and storage of Fe(III) in the bacterioferritin of Escherichia coli (EcBFR). Using Mossbauer spectroscopy to examine the initial oxidation of iron by EcBFR we have

The iron storage molecule, ferritin, consists of an iron core surrounded by a shell of 24 protein subunits, which, in mammals, are of two types, H and L. Prior to storage of iron as a hydrous ferric oxide within the protein shell, Fe(II) is catalytic

Iron(III) monomers, dimers and clusters have been identified by Mossbauer spectroscopy during the initial stages of iron incorporation into ferritins, following Fe(II) oxidation. Iron(III) monomers seem to arise from dimer dissociation. Some of the m

Ferritin stores iron as ferrihydrite inside a shell composed of H and L protein chains. H chains contain ferroxidase centres catalysing Fe2+ oxidation, while L chains lack these centres but seem to promote ferrihydrite nucleation. Mossbauer spectrosc
