| Abstract | Fe-S clusters are critical prosthetic groups for proteins involved in various critical biological processes. Before being transferred to recipient apo-proteins, Fe-S clusters are assembled on the highly conserved scaffold protein Isu, the abundance of which is regulated posttranslationally on disruption of the cluster biogenesis system. Here we report that Isu is degraded by the Lon-type AAA+ ATPase protease of the mitochondrial matrix, Pim1. Nfs1, the cysteine desulfurase responsible for providing sulfur for cluster formation, is required for the increased Isu stability occurring after disruption of cluster formation on or transfer from Isu. Physical interaction between the Isu and Nfs1 proteins, not the enzymatic activity of Nfs1, is the important factor in increased stability. Analysis of several conditions revealed that high Isu levels can be advantageous or disadvantageous, depending on the physiological condition. During the stationary phase, elevated Isu levels were advantageous, resulting in prolonged chronological lifespan. On the other hand, under iron-limiting conditions, high Isu levels were deleterious. Compared with cells expressing normal levels of Isu, such cells grew poorly and exhibited reduced activity of the heme-containing enzyme ferric reductase. Our results suggest that modulation of the degradation of Isu by the Pim1 protease is a regulatory mechanism serving to rapidly help balance the cell's need for critical iron-requiring processes under changing environmental conditions. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
