Sequence of Fe-S cluster assembly and functional role of FDX2. a Persulfidation of ISCU monitored by the alkylation assay in the NIAUF complex containing either Fe-ISCU or Zn-ISCU without L-cysteine, with L-cysteine and after addition of FDX2. b Persulfidation of the C104S mutant of Fe-ISCU and of apo-ISCU in the NIAUF complex upon addition of L-cysteine. ce ESI-Q/TOF deconvoluted mass spectra of Fe-ISCU upon incubation of the NIAUF complex without (c) or with (d) L-cysteine and after Fe-S cluster reconstitution (e), analyzed under denaturing conditions (see Supplementary Fig. 4 for raw spectra and Supplementary Table 3 for expected masses). f Fe-S cluster formation monitored at 456 nm upon addition of FDX2 to the NIAUF complex containing persulfidated Fe-ISCU. g Effect of a metal chelator (DTPA) on persulfide reduction by FDX2. h Effect of FDX2 on the persulfide of NFS1 and Fe-ISCU for various amounts of L-cysteine indicated as molar ratios. i Quantifications of the gels in h expressed as the relative percentages of persulfidated (gray bar) and non-persulfidated (white bar) proteins. Error bars represent standard deviation from n = 3 independent experiments, uncropped gels underlying panels a, b, g, h and source data of panel i are provided as Source Data file
