Abstract
Enzymes carrying Iron-Sulfur (Fe-S) clusters perform many important cellular functions and their biogenesis require complex protein machinery. In mitochondria, the IBA57 protein is essential and promotes assembly of [4Fe-4S] clusters and their insertion into acceptor proteins. YgfZ is the bacterial homologue of IBA57 but its precise role in Fe-S cluster metabolism is uncharacterized. YgfZ is needed for activity of the radical S-adenosyl methionine [4Fe-4S] cluster enzyme MiaB which thiomethylates some tRNAs. The growth of cells lacking YgfZ is compromised especially at low temperature. The RimO enzyme is homologous to MiaB and thiomethylates a conserved aspartic acid in ribosomal protein S12. To quantitate thiomethylation by RimO, we developed a bottom-up LC-MS2 analysis of total cell extracts. We show here that the in vivo activity of RimO is very low in the absence of YgfZ and independent of growth temperature. We discuss these results in relation to the hypotheses relating to the role of the auxiliary 4Fe-4S cluster in the Radical SAM enzymes that make Carbon-Sulfur bonds.
