A conserved motif liganding the [4Fe–4S] cluster in [4Fe–4S] fumarases prevents irreversible inactivation of the enzyme during hydrogen peroxide stress

Organisms have evolved two different classes of the ubiquitous enzyme fumarase: the [4Fe–4S] cluster-containing class I enzymes are oxidant-sensitive, whereas the class II enzymes are iron-free and therefore oxidant-resistant. When hydrogen peroxide (H(2)O(2)) attacks the most-studied [4Fe–4S] fumar...
