摘要
Isu are scaffold proteins involved in iron-sulfur cluster biogenesis and playing a key role in yeast mitochondria and Escherichia coli. In this work, we have characterized the Arabidopsis thaliana Isu gene family. AtIsul,2,3 genes encode polypeptides closely related to their bacterial and eukaryotic counterparts. AtIsu expression in a Saccharomyces cerevisiae Delta isu1 Delta nfu1 thermosensitive mutant led to the growth restoration of this strain at 37 degrees C. Using Isu-GFP fusions expressed in leaf protoplasts and immunodetection in organelle extracts, we have shown that Arabidopsis Isu proteins are located only into mitochondria, supporting the existence of an Isu-independent Fe-S assembly machinery in plant plastids.
