  ABSTRACT  
 
Ferritins are known as important iron storage/detoxification proteins and are widely found in living organisms. This report details the 2.1 A resolution native and 2.7 A resolution iron bound structures of the ferritin from the hyperthermophilic Archaeon Archaeoglobus fulgidus, and represents the first structure of a ferritin from an archaeon, or a hyperthermophilic organism. The A. fulgidus ferritin (AfFtn) monomer has a high degree of structural similarity with archetypal ferritins from E. coli and humans, but the AfFtn quaternary structure is novel; 24 subunits assemble into a shell having tetrahedral (2-3) rather than the canonical octahedral (4-3-2) symmetry of archetypal ferritins. The difference in assembly opens four large (approximately 45 A) pores in the AfFtn shell. Two nonconservative amino acid substitutions may be critical for stabilizing the tetrahedral form.

Figure 2. Subunit Structure of the AfFtn
(A) A cartoon ribbon representation of the AfFtn monomer (native structure) showing the location of the two bound Zn2+ ions. The model is colored green except for residues which are identical in the AfFtn, EcFtnA, and HuHf which are colored blue or red (red indicates conserved ferroxidase center residues).
(B) Tube-style cartoon representation of AfFtn structure (green) with EcFtnA (blue) structure superimposed (rmsd 0.849 Å, 158 C^a). The orientation of the AfFtn molecule is identical to that in (A).
(C) Structural superpositioning of AfFtn (green), and HuHf structures (rmsd 1.09 Å, 157 C^a). Images created using PYMOL.

The most recent references are shown first. Citation data come partly from CiteXplore and partly from an automated harvesting procedure. Note that this is likely to be only a partial list as not all journals are covered by either method. However, we are continually building up the citation data so more and more references will be included with time. Where a reference describes a PDB structure, the PDB codes are shown on the right.
