Mechanistic Insight into the Symmetric Fission of [4Fe-4S] Analogue Complexes and Implications for Cluster Conversions in Iron-Sulfur Proteins

Abstract

Assembly and disassembly of protein-bound iron-sulfur clusters are involved in a wide variety of vital biological processes, ranging from stabilization of protein structures to signaling and sensing of environmental conditions such as changes of Fe or O2 concentrations.
