Iron regulatory proteins (IRPs) control iron
metabolism by specifically interacting with iron-responsive elements
(IREs) on mRNAs. Nitric oxide (NO) converts IRP-1 from a [4Fe-4S]
aconitase to a trans-regulatory protein through Fe-S
cluster disassembly. Here, we have focused on the fate of IRE binding
IRP1 from murine macrophages when NO flux stops. We show that virtually
all IRP-1 molecules from NO-producing cells dissociated from IRE and
recovered aconitase activity after re-assembling a [4Fe-4S] cluster
in vitro. The reverse change in IRP-1 activities also
occurred in intact cells no longer exposed to NO and did not require
de novo protein synthesis. Likewise, inhibition of
mitochondrial aconitase via NO-induced Fe-S cluster disassembly was
also reversed independently of protein translation after NO removal.
Our results provide the first evidence of Fe-S cluster repair of
NO-modified aconitases in mammalian cells. Moreover, we show that
reverse change in IRP-1 activities and repair of mitochondrial
aconitase activity depended on energized mitochondria. Finally, we
demonstrate that IRP-1 activation by NO was accompanied by both a
drastic decrease in ferritin levels and an increase in transferrin
receptor mRNA levels. However, although ferritin expression was
recovered upon IRP-1-IRE dissociation, expression of transferrin
receptor mRNA continued to rise for several hours after stopping NO flux.
