Investigation of an atypical protoporphyric family in South Africa
… and an absence of mutations in the ferrochelatase gene or haplotype markers associated with erythropoietic protoporphyria. We have reviewed clinical data from this family, established a ferrochelatase enzyme assay in our laboratory, and shown normal ferrochelatase enzyme activity in …

Designing Novel Blue Copper and Purple CuA Centers in Azurin With Natural and Unnatural Amino Acids
… a 2Fe-2S cluster binding loop from human ferrochelatase into azurin. Preliminary iron binding studies indicate the assembly of a 4Fe-4S or a 2Fe-2S iron sulfur cluster.

The molecular mechanism of action of the antiangiogenic natural product, cremastranone
… a chemical proteomic approach. I identified ferrochelatase (FECH) as a specific interacting protein partner of cremastranone using photoaffinity chromatography. Hence, I hypothesized that cremastranone exerts its antiangiogenic activities through modulation of the functions of FECH. …

Characterization of the Hepatotoxicity of Rifampicin and Isoniazid
… to cholestasis fol owed by liver injury. Both ferrochelatase (<em>FECH</em>/<em>Fech</em>) and aminolevulinic acid synthase 1 (<em>ALAS1</em>/<em>Alas1</em>) are crucial enzymes in regulating heme biosynthesis. Isoniazid has recently been reported to up-regulate <em>Alas1 </em>but down-regulate …

Isothermal Titration Calorimetry Studies Of Protein-Mediated Interactions And Preliminary Structural Studies Of Tandem Pdz1-2 Domain Of Psd-95 Protein
… delivers mitochondrial Fe(II) to the enzymes ferrochelatase and the ISU apparatus for completion of heme and Fe-S cluster biosynthesis. Monomeric frataxin protein has a high affinity for ferrous ion, completely saturating at 2:1 iron to protein ratio. The micromolar dissociation constants …
