Interest in understanding how mammalian cells regulated iron uptake and distribution in the 1980s led to the discovery of a post-transcriptional regulatory mechanism, which was found to be crucial for cellular and systemic iron homeostasis in vertebrates. This work not only details novel determinants of APR-246 activity in cancer cells, but also provides a clinical roadmap for targeting antioxidant pathways in tumours – beyond targeting mutant-p53 tumours. Importantly, we found that APR-246 inhibits iron-sulfur cluster biogenesis in the mitochondria of cancer cells through cysteine conjugation. Hence the process of Fe–S cluster biosynthesis is essential to almost all forms of life and is remarkably conserved in prokaryotic and eukaryotic organisms.

Iron–sulfur cluster biogenesis and human disease Iron–sulfur (Fe–S) clusters are essential for numerous biological processes, including mitochondrial respiratory chain activity and various other enzymatic and regulatory functions. Among the housekeeping iron-sulfur cluster assembly proteins encoded by the gene cluster iscSUA-hscBA-fdx-iscX in E. coli cells, the scaffold IscU, the iron chaperone IscA, and ferredoxin have strong zinc binding activity in cells, suggesting that intracellular zinc overload inhibits iron-sulfur cluster biogenesis by binding to the iron-sulfur cluster assembly proteins. Biogenesis of iron–sulfur clusters (FeS) is a highly conserved process involving Hsp70 and J-protein chaperones. Several [Fe S] biogenesis systems have been discovered, such as the NIF (ni trogen f ixation), SUF (mobilisation of su l f ur) and ISC (i ron– s ulfur c luster) systems in bacteria, and the ISC‐like and CIA (c ytosolic i ron–sulfur protein a ssembly) systems in yeast. Transition metal trafficking, utilization, and regulation are critical processes for all organisms because transition metals serve as cofactors for a wide variety of essential pathways. Please share how this access benefits you. We propose this as a novel in vivo repair mechanism that does not require the intervention of an iron–sulfur cluster biogenesis pathway. Iron–sulfur cluster biogenesis genes implicated in human diseases. Until recently, only a few human diseases related to mitochondrial ISC biogenesis defects have been described. FXN participates in the biosynthesis of Fe-S clusters and is considered to be essential for viability. Loss of FDX1 activity disrupted activity of iron-sulfur cluster enzymes and cellular iron homeostasis, causing mitochondrial iron overload and cytosolic iron depletion. We will also discuss how ISCs are delivered to recipient proteins and the challenges that remain in dissecting the pathways that deliver clusters to numerous Fe–S recipient proteins in both the mitochondrial matrix and cytosolic compartments of mammalian cells.
