A Review of Multiple Mitochondrial Dysfunction Syndromes, Syndromes Associated with Defective Fe-S Protein Maturation. Biomedicines 2021; 9:biomedicines9080989. [PMID: 34440194 PMCID: PMC8393393 DOI: 10.3390/biomedicines9080989] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/23/2021] [Revised: 08/03/2021] [Accepted: 08/06/2021] [Indexed: 11/25/2022] Open
Abstract
Mitochondrial proteins carrying iron-sulfur (Fe-S) clusters are involved in essential cellular pathways such as oxidative phosphorylation, lipoic acid synthesis, and iron metabolism. NFU1, BOLA3, IBA57, ISCA2, and ISCA1 are involved in the last steps of the maturation of mitochondrial [4Fe-4S]-containing proteins. Since 2011, mutations in their genes leading to five multiple mitochondrial dysfunction syndromes (MMDS types 1 to 5) were reported. The aim of this systematic review is to describe all reported MMDS-patients. Their clinical, biological, and radiological data and associated genotype will be compared to each other. Despite certain specific clinical elements such as pulmonary hypertension or dilated cardiomyopathy in MMDS type 1 or 2, respectively, nearly all of the patients with MMDS presented with severe and early onset leukoencephalopathy. Diagnosis could be suggested by high lactate, pyruvate, and glycine levels in body fluids. Genetic analysis including large gene panels (Next Generation Sequencing) or whole exome sequencing is needed to confirm diagnosis.

Abstract
Iron-sulfur (Fe-S) clusters are prosthetic groups ensuring electron transfer reactions, activating substrates for catalytic reactions, providing sulfur atoms for the biosynthesis of vitamins or other cofactors, or having protein-stabilizing effects. Hence, metalloproteins containing these cofactors are essential for numerous and diverse metabolic pathways and cellular processes occurring in the cytoplasm. Mitochondria are organelles where the Fe-S cluster demand is high, notably because the activity of the respiratory chain complexes I, II, and III relies on the correct assembly and functioning of Fe-S proteins. Several other proteins or complexes present in the matrix require Fe-S clusters as well, or depend either on Fe-S proteins such as ferredoxins or on cofactors such as lipoic acid or biotin whose synthesis relies on Fe-S proteins. In this review, we have listed and discussed the Fe-S-dependent enzymes or pathways in plant mitochondria including some potentially novel Fe-S proteins identified based on in silico analysis or on recent evidence obtained in non-plant organisms. We also provide information about recent developments concerning the molecular mechanisms involved in Fe-S cluster synthesis and trafficking steps of these cofactors from maturation factors to client apoproteins.

Abstract
The synthesis and trafficking of iron-sulfur (Fe-S) clusters in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes requires coordination within an expanding network of proteins that function in the cytosol, nucleus, mitochondria, and chloroplasts in order to assemble and deliver these ancient and essential cofactors to a wide variety of Fe-S-dependent enzymes and proteins. This review focuses on the evolving roles of two ubiquitous classes of proteins that operate in this network: CGFS glutaredoxins and BolA proteins. Monothiol or CGFS glutaredoxins possess a Cys-Gly-Phe-Ser active site that coordinates an Fe-S cluster in a homodimeric complex. CGFS glutaredoxins also form [2Fe-2S]-bridged heterocomplexes with BolA proteins, which possess an invariant His and an additional His or Cys residue that serve as cluster ligands. Here we focus on recent discoveries in bacteria, fungi, humans, and plants that highlight the shared and distinct roles of CGFS glutaredoxins and BolA proteins in Fe-S cluster biogenesis, Fe-S cluster storage and trafficking, and Fe-S cluster signaling to transcriptional factors that control iron metabolism--.

The isc gene cluster expression ethanol tolerance associated improves its ethanol production by organic acids flux redirection in the ethanologenic Escherichia coli KO11 strain. World J Microbiol Biotechnol 2019; 35:189.

Abstract
Fossil fuels consumption impacts the greenhouse gas emissions. Biofuels are considered as alternative renewable energy sources to reduce the fossil fuels dependency. Bioethanol produced by recombinant microorganisms is a widely suggested alternative to increase the yield in fermentation processes. However, ethanol and acetate accumulation under the fermentation process had been described as important stressors for the metabolic capabilities of the microorganisms, stopping the fermentation process and affecting the ethanol yield. Ethanol tolerance is a determining factor in the improvement of fermentative properties of microorganisms; however understanding of ethanol tolerance is limited. The engineered Escherichia coli KO11 strain has been studied in detail and used as an ethanologenic bacteria model. The strain is capable of using glucose and xylose for an efficient ethanol yield. In the current work, the effect of the iron-sulfur cluster (ISC) over-expression in the KO11 strain, on its tolerance and ethanol yield, was evaluated. Fatty acids profiles of membrane phospholipids in the E. coli KO11 were modified under ethanol addition, but not due to the hscA mutation. The hscA mutation provoked a decrease in ethanol tolerance in the Kmp strain when was grown with 2% ethanol, in comparison to KO11 parent strain. Ethanol tolerance was improved in the mutant Kmp complemented with the recombinant isc gene cluster (pJC10 plasmid) from LD50 2.16% to LD50 3.8% ethanol. In batch fermentation on 1 L bioreactor using mineral medium with glucose (120 g/L), the KO11 strain showed ethanol production efficiencies of ~ 76.9%, while the hscA mutant (Kmp) ~ 75.4% and the transformed strain Kmp(pJC10) showed ~ 92.4% efficiency. Ethanol amount increase in the engineered Kmp(pJC10) strain was correlated with less organic acids (such as acetate and lactate) production in the fermentation medium (2.3 g/L), compared to that in the KO11 (17.05 g/L) and the Kmp (16.62 g/L). Alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) activity was increased ~ 350% in the transformed Kmp(pJC10) strain, whereas in the Kmp mutant, the phosphoglycerate kinase (PGK), pyruvate kinase (PYK), and ADH activities were diminished, comparing to KO11. The results suggest that the isc system over-expression in the ethanologenic E. coli KO11 strain, increases ethanol yield mainly by improving ethanol tolerance and ADH activity, and by redirecting the metabolic flux from acetate synthesis to ethanol.

Over-expression of Isu1p and Jac1p increases the ethanol tolerance and yield by superoxide and iron homeostasis mechanism in an engineered Saccharomyces cerevisiae yeast. J Ind Microbiol Biotechnol 2019; 46:925-936. [PMID: 30963327 DOI: 10.1007/s10295-019-02175-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/05/2019] [Accepted: 04/03/2019] [Indexed: 10/27/2022]
Abstract
The ethanol stress response in ethanologenic yeast during fermentation involves the swishing of several adaptation mechanisms. In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, the Jac1p and Isu1p proteins constitute the scaffold system for the Fe-S cluster assembly. This study was performed using the over-expression of the Jac1p and Isu1p in the industrially utilized S. cerevisiae UMArn3 strain, with the objective of improving the Fe-S assembly/recycling, and thus counteracting the toxic effects of ethanol stress during fermentation. The UMArn3 yeast was transformed with both the JAC1-His and ISU1-His genes-plasmid contained. The Jac1p and Isu1p His-tagged proteins over-expression in the engineered yeasts was confirmed by immunodetection, rendering increases in ethanol tolerance level from a DL50 = ~ 4.5% ethanol (v/v) to DL50 = ~ 8.2% ethanol (v/v), and survival up 90% at 15% ethanol (v/v) comparing to ~ 50% survival in the control strain. Fermentation by the engineered yeasts showed that the ethanol production was increased, producing 15-20% more ethanol than the control yeast. The decrease of ROS and free-iron accumulation was observed in the engineered yeasts under ethanol stress condition. The results indicate that Jac1p and Isu1p over-expression in the S. cerevisiae UMArn3.3 yeast increased its ethanol tolerance level and ethanol production by a mechanism that involves ROS and iron homeostasis related to the biogenesis/recycling of Fe-S clusters dependent proteins.

Abstract
The related study has confirmed that in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, iba57 protein participates in maturation of the [2Fe–2S] cluster into the Rieske protein, which plays important roles in the conformation and functionality of mitochondrial supercomplexes III/IV in the electron transport chain (Sánchez et al., 2018) [1]. We determined in S. cerevisiae the effects of mutation in the IBA57 gene on reactive oxygen species (ROS) and iron homeostasis. Flow cytometry and confocal microscopy analyses showed an increased generation of ROS, correlated with free Fe2+ release in the IBA57 mutant yeast. Data obtained support that a dysfunction in the Rieske protein has close relationship between ROS generation and free Fe2+ content, and which is possible that free Fe2+ release mainly proceeds from [Fe–S] cluster-containing proteins.

Abstract
The majority of established model organisms belong to the supergroup Opisthokonta, which includes yeasts and animals. While enlightening, this focus has neglected protists, organisms that represent the bulk of eukaryotic diversity and are often regarded as primitive eukaryotes. One of these is the “supergroup” Excavata, which comprises unicellular flagellates of diverse lifestyles and contains species of medical importance, such as Trichomonas, Giardia, Naegleria, Trypanosoma and Leishmania. Excavata exhibits a continuum in mitochondrial forms, ranging from classical aerobic, cristae-bearing mitochondria to mitochondria-related organelles, such as hydrogenosomes and mitosomes, to the extreme case of a complete absence of the organelle. All forms of mitochondria house a machinery for the assembly of Fe–S clusters, ancient cofactors required in various biochemical activities needed to sustain every extant cell. In this review, we survey what is known about the Fe–S cluster assembly in the supergroup Excavata. We aim to bring attention to the diversity found in this group, reflected in gene losses and gains that have shaped the Fe–S cluster biogenesis pathways.
