“…Mutations in the sequence and the corresponding loss of function of human frataxin are connected to clinical diseases like Friedreich’s ataxia [33] , [34] , [35] . Meanwhile in Gram-negative bacteria, CyaY, the corresponding protein orthologue to eukaryotic frataxin has been identified for its ability to bind iron and its structural similarity to eukaryotic frataxin and its ability to supply Fe-S cluster proteins with the necessary iron [36] , [37] , [38] . The ability to bind and transfer iron to target recipients (like CpfC) has been shown for a homologous protein in Gram-positive prokaryotic cells, also annotated as frataxin (or protein with an YdhG domain) in Bacillus subtilis .…”
