RL J. Biol. Chem. 283:14084-14091(2008).
CC -!- FUNCTION: Involved in iron-sulfur cluster biogenesis under severe
CC conditions such as iron starvation or oxidative stress. Binds a 4Fe-4S
CC cluster, can transfer this cluster to apoproteins, and thereby
CC intervenes in the maturation of Fe/S proteins. Could also act as a
CC scaffold/chaperone for damaged Fe/S proteins. Required for E.coli to
CC sustain oxidative stress and iron starvation. Also necessary for the
CC use of extracellular DNA as the sole source of carbon and energy.
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16707682, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18339628}.
CC -!- COFACTOR:
CC Name=[4Fe-4S] cluster; Xref=ChEBI:CHEBI:49883;
CC Note=Binds 1 [4Fe-4S] cluster per subunit. The cluster is presumably
CC bound at the interface of two monomers.;
CC -!- SUBUNIT: Homodimer. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:18339628}.
CC -!- INDUCTION: Up-regulated under conditions of iron depletion or oxidative
CC stress, via IscR. Is also induced by heat shock or the presence of
CC misfolded proteins. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11917152,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:12746439, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18339628}.
CC -!- DOMAIN: Consits of two domains, an N-terminal domain that resembles the
CC so-called Fe/S A-type scaffold, and a C-terminal domain that shares
CC sequence identity with Nfu-type scaffold proteins. Both domains are
CC important for NfuA to fulfill its function in vivo. The N-terminal
CC domain does not possess the three conserved cysteine residues thought
CC to act as Fe/S cluster ligands in A-type scaffold proteins, but may
CC keep the ability to interact with apoproteins.
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:18339628}.
CC -!- DISRUPTION PHENOTYPE: Cells express the stationary phase-specific
CC competition-defective (SPCD) phenotype and are unable to catabolize
CC dsDNA. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16707682}.
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the NfuA family. {ECO:0000305}.
CC -!- CAUTION: Was originally thought to be involved in gluconate metabolism
CC and was referred to as GntY. {ECO:0000305|PubMed:9871335}.
