Protein-bound iron-sulfur ([Fe-S]) clusters, which are polynuclear combinations of iron and sulfur atoms, are among the most structurally and functionally versatile cofactors in biology 1. [Fe-S ...

Their findings are published in the Journal of the American Chemical Society. "Iron-sulfur ([FeS]) clusters are essential, widely distributed protein cofactors that perform a wide variety of ...

This research adds to the growing body of evidence supporting the idea that iron-sulfur clusters and the acetyl-CoA pathway played crucial roles in life’s emergence, regardless of whether it ...

Saunders received her doctorate from Penn State University where her research focused on isolating and characterizing enzymes that use iron-sulfur clusters as cofactors. After graduating, Saunders ...
