Crystal structure of radical SAM epimerase EpeE C223A mutant from Bacillus subtilis with [4Fe-4S] clusters, S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine and RiPP peptide 6 bound
Radical SAM proteins catalyse diverse reactions, including unusual methylations, isomerisation, sulphur insertion, ring formation, anaerobic oxidation and protein radical formation.
This family includes proteins containing domains which bind to iron-sulfur clusters. Members include bacterial ferredoxins, various dehydrogenases, and various reductases. The structure of the domain is an alpha-antiparallel beta sandwich.
