Two kinds of iron-containing proteins the molecular masses of which were about 10kDa and 24kDa were isolated from cytoplasmic fractions of Mycobacterium smegmatis grown under iron-sufficient (50μM Fe) and iron-overload (500μM Fe) conditions. Based upon the elution profiles in two chromatographic systems, spectrophotometric analysis, and ESR spectrum measurement, the protein of 10kDa met the criteria for classification as a ferredoxin. Another protein of 24 kDa showed no enzymatic activity, though its detailed structure was unknown. The ferredoxin and the protein of 24kDa contained about 30% and 50% of the total cellular iron, respectively, when cells were grown under the above conditions. The synthesis of the protein of 24kDa was, however, completely repressed in cells grown under iron-deficient (0.5μM Fe) conditions, although the ferredoxin was still synthesized to some extent even in iron-deficient cells. These results suggested that both ferredoxin and the protein of 24kDa could be synergistically involved in iron storage in this organism.
