| UniProt functional annotation for P77689 | |||
| UniProt code: P77689. |
| Organism: | Escherichia coli (strain K12). | |
| Taxonomy: | Bacteria; Proteobacteria; Gammaproteobacteria; Enterobacterales; Enterobacteriaceae; Escherichia. | |
| Function: | The SufBCD complex acts synergistically with SufE to stimulate the cysteine desulfurase activity of SufS. The SufBCD complex contributes to the assembly or repair of oxygen-labile iron-sulfur clusters under oxidative stress. May facilitate iron uptake from extracellular iron chelators under iron limitation. Required for the stability of the FhuF protein. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10322040, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12941942}. | |
| Subunit: | Part of the SufBCD complex that contains SufB, SufC and SufD. Can form homodimers. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12941942, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16021622}. | |
| Similarity: | Belongs to the UPF0051 (ycf24) family. {ECO:0000305}. | |
