Both human ferredoxins equally efficiently rescue ferredoxin deficiency in Trypanosoma brucei

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

Ferredoxins are highly conserved proteins that function universally as electron transporters. They not only require Fe-S clusters for their own activity, but are also involved in Fe-S formation itself. We identified two homologues of ferredoxin in the genome of the parasitic protist Trypanosoma brucei and named them TbFdxA and TbFdxB. TbFdxA protein, which is homologous to other eukaryotic mitochondrial ferredoxins, is essential in both the procyclic (=insect-transmitted) and bloodstream (mammalian) stage, but is more abundant in the active mitochondrion of the former stage. Depletion of TbFdxA caused disruption of Fe-S cluster biogenesis and lowered the level of intracellular haem. However, TbFdxB, which is present exclusively within kinetoplastid flagellates, was non-essential for the procyclic stage, and double knock-down with TbFdxA showed this was not due to functional redundancy between the two homologues. Heterologous expressions of human orthologues HsFdx1 and HsFdx2 fully resc
