In eukaryotes, mitochondria execute a central
task in the assembly of cellular iron-sulfur (Fe/S) proteins. The
organelles synthesize their own set of Fe/S proteins, and they initiate
the generation of extramitochondrial Fe/S proteins. In the present study, we identify the mitochondrial matrix protein Isa1p of
Saccharomyces cerevisiae as a new member of the Fe/S
cluster biosynthesis machinery. Isa1p belongs to a family of homologous
proteins present in prokaryotes and eukaryotes. Deletion of the
ISA1 gene results in the loss of mitochondrial DNA
precluding the use of the
Isa1p Is a Component of the Mitochondrial Machinery for
Maturation of Cellular Iron-Sulfur Proteins and Requires Conserved
Cysteine Residues for Function*
, and
isa1 strain for functional analysis. Cells
in which Isa1p was depleted by regulated gene expression maintained the
mitochondrial DNA, yet the cells displayed retarded growth on
nonfermentable carbon sources. This finding indicates the importance of
Isa1p for mitochondrial function. Deficiency of Isa1p caused a defect
in mitochondrial Fe/S protein assembly. Moreover, Isa1p was required
for maturation of cytosolic Fe/S proteins. Two cysteine residues in a
conserved sequence motif characterizing the Isa1p protein family were
found to be essential for Isa1p function in the biogenesis of both
intra- and extramitochondrial Fe/S proteins. Our findings suggest a
function for Isa1p in the binding of iron or an intermediate of Fe/S
cluster assembly.
