Iron-sulfur (Fe-S) clusters are prosthetic groups of proteins biosynthesized on scaffold proteins by highly conserved multi-protein machineries. Fe-S clusters biosynthesis into the ISCU scaffold protein is initiated by ferrous iron insertion followed by sulfur acquisition, via a still elusive mechanism. Notably, whether iron initially binds to the ISCU cysteine-rich assembly site or to a cysteine-less auxiliary site via N/O ligands remains unclear. We show here by SEC, CD and Mössbauer spectroscopies that iron binds to the assembly site of monomeric ISCU proteins from prokaryotes and eukaryotes via either one or two cysteines, referred to the 1-Cys and 2-Cys forms. The latter predominated at pH 8.0 and correlated with Fe-S cluster assembly activity, whereas the former increased at a more acidic pH, together with free iron, suggesting that it constitutes an intermediate of the iron insertion process. Iron not binding to the assembly site was non-specifically bound to aggregated ISCU, ruling out the existence of a structurally defined auxiliary site in ISCU. Characterization of the 2-Cys form by site-directed mutagenesis, CD, NMR, XAS, Mössbauer and EPR spectroscopies showed that the iron center is coordinated by four strictly conserved amino acids of the assembly site: Cys35, Asp37, Cys61 and His103 in a tetrahedral geometry. The sulfur receptor Cys104 was found at very close distance and apparently bound to the iron center when His103 was missing, which may enable iron-dependent sulfur acquisition. Altogether, these data provide the structural basis to elucidate the Fe-S cluster assembly process and establish that the initiation of Fe-S cluster biosynthesis by insertion of a ferrous iron in the assembly site of ISCU is a conserved mechanism.
