Abstract


Yeast Dre2 (anamorsin or CIAPIN1) is an essential component for cytosolic Fe/S cluster biosynthesis. The C-terminal domain contains eight evolutionarily conserved cysteine residues, and we previously demonstrated that the yeast Dre2 overexpressed in Escherichia coli contains one binuclear ([2Fe-2S]) cluster and one tetranuclear ([4Fe-4S]) cluster. In this study, we replaced each conserved cysteine with alanine and analyzed the effects by Electron Paramagnetic Resonance. Although the C311A mutant lacked both signals, our data clearly suggest that the [2Fe-2S] cluster is ligated to Cys252, Cys263, Cys266 and Cys268, whereas the [4Fe-4S] cluster is ligated to Cys311, Cys314, Cys322 and Cys325. By simulation analysis of the C263A and C322A data, we obtained the g-values for the [4Fe-4S] cluster (gx,y,z = 1.830, 1.947 and 2.018) and for the [2Fe-2S] cluster (gx,y,z =1.919, 1.962 and 2.001). We also observed spin-spin interaction between the two clusters, suggesting their close proximity. Chemically reconstituted Dre2 showed air sensitivity of the [4Fe-4S] cluster converting to a [2Fe-2S] cluster. Furthermore, using a yeast shuffle strain, we demonstrated for the first time that each of the Cys Fe-S cluster ligands with the exception of C252 is essential, indicating that both Dre2 clusters are needed for cell viability.
