A Novel Non-heme Iron-binding Ferritin Related to the DNA-binding Proteins of the Dps Family in Listeria innocua

(Received for publication, October 15, 1996)

From the Dagger  Centro Biologia Molecolare, Consiglio Nazionale delle Ricerche, Dipartimento di Scienze Biochimiche "A. Rossi Fanelli", Università la Sapienza, 00185 Roma, the § Istituto di Microbiologia, Università la Sapienza, 00185 Roma, and the  Istituto di Microbiologia, II Università, 80138 Napoli, Italy

A multimeric protein that behaves functionally as an authentic ferritin has been isolated from the Gram-positive bacterium Listeria innocua. The purified protein has a molecular mass of about 240,000 Da and is composed of a single type of subunit (18,000 Da). L. innocua ferritin is able to oxidize and sequester about 500 iron atoms inside the protein cage. The primary structure reveals a high similarity to the DNA-binding proteins designated Dps. Among the proven ferritins, the most similar sequences are those of mammalian L chains that appear to share with L. innocua ferritin the negatively charged amino acids corresponding to the iron nucleation site. In L. innocua ferritin, an additional aspartyl residue may provide a strong complexing capacity that renders the iron oxidation and incorporation processes extremely efficient. This study provides the first experimental evidence for the existence of a non-heme bacterial ferritin that is related to Dps proteins, a finding that lends support to the recent suggestion of a common evolutionary origin of these two protein families.
