Full crystallographic information is available from OCA. For a guided tour on the structure components use FirstGlance. Ligands: FE Resources: FirstGlance, OCA, PDBe, RCSB, PDBsum, ProSAT Function [DPS_LISMO] Protects DNA from oxidative damage by sequestering intracellular Fe(2+) ion and storing it in the form of Fe(3+) oxyhydroxide mineral. One hydrogen peroxide oxidizes two Fe(2+) ions, which prevents hydroxyl radical production by the Fenton reaction. Does not bind to DNA (By similarity). Dps is important for full resistance to heat and cold shocks and is essential for full virulence of this bacterium. It seems to play a direct or indirect role on the production and/or stability of listeriolysin O. Evolutionary Conservation Check, as determined by ConSurfDB.

Publication Abstract from PubMed The stability of the dodecameric Listeria monocytogenes Dps has been compared with that of the Listeria innocua protein. The two proteins differ only in two amino acid residues that form an intersubunit salt-bridge in L. innocua Dps. This salt-bridge is replaced by a hydrogen bonding network in L. monocytogenes Dps as revealed by the X-ray crystal structure. The resistance to low pH and high temperature was assayed for both Dps proteins under equilibrium conditions and kinetically. Despite the identical equilibrium behavior, significant differences in the kinetic stability and activation energy of the unfolding process are apparent at pH 1.5. The higher stability of L. monocytogenes Dps has been accounted for in terms of the persistence of the hydrogen bonding network at this low pH value. In contrast, the salt-bridge between Lys 114 and Asp 126 characteristic of L. innocua Dps is most likely abolished due to protonation of Asp 126. The mutations Lys 114 --> Gln and Asp 126 --> Asn disrupt an intersubunit salt bridge and convert Listeria innocua Dps into its natural mutant Listeria monocytogenes Dps.
