abstract = {The role of the mitochondrial protein frataxin in iron
storage and detoxification, iron delivery to iron-sulfur
cluster biosynthesis, heme biosynthesis, and aconitase
repair has been extensively studied during the last decade.
However, still no general consensus exists on the details of
the mechanism of frataxin function and oligomerization.
Here, using small-angle x-ray scattering and x-ray
crystallography, we describe the solution structure of the
oligomers formed during the iron-dependent assembly of yeast
(Yfh1) and Escherichia coli (CyaY) frataxin. At an
iron-to-protein ratio of 2, the initially monomeric Yfh1 is
converted to a trimeric form in solution. The trimer in turn
serves as the assembly unit for higher order oligomers
induced at higher iron-to-protein ratios. The x-ray
crystallographic structure obtained from iron-soaked
crystals demonstrates that iron binds at the trimer-trimer
interaction sites, presumably contributing to oligomer
stabilization. For the ferroxidation-deficient D79A/D82A
variant of Yfh1, iron-dependent oligomerization may still
take place, although $>50\%$ of the protein is found in the
monomeric state at the highest iron-to-protein ratio used.
This demonstrates that the ferroxidation reaction controls
frataxin assembly and presumably the iron chaperone function
of frataxin and its interactions with target proteins. For
E. coli CyaY, the assembly unit of higher order oligomers is
a tetramer, which could be an effect of the much shorter
N-terminal region of this protein. The results show that
understanding of the mechanistic features of frataxin
function requires detailed knowledge of the interplay
between the ferroxidation reaction, iron-induced
oligomerization, and the structure of oligomers formed
during assembly.},
