Ferritins are ubiquitous iron-storage proteins found in all kingdoms of life. They share a common architecture made of 24 subunits of five α-helices. The recombinant Chlorobium tepidum ferritin (rCtFtn) is a structurally interesting protein since sequence alignments with other ferritins show that this protein has a significantly extended C-terminus, which possesses 12 histidine residues as well as...
The recombinant Chlorobium tepidum ferritin (rCtFtn) is able to oxidize iron using ferroxidase activity but its ferroxidase activity is intermediate between the H-chain human ferritin and the L-chain human ferritin. The rCtFtn has an unusual C-terminal region composed of 12 histidine residues, as well as aspartate and glutamate residues. These residues act as potential metal ion ligands, and the rCtFtn...
