Gene Description

ILV3 encodes mitochondrial dihydroxy-acid dehydratase (DHAD, EC 4.2.1.9) of Saccharomyces cerevisiae, an IlvD/EDD-family enzyme carrying one [2Fe-2S] cluster per subunit and Mg2+. In the mitochondrial matrix it dehydrates 2,3-dihydroxyisovalerate to 2-oxoisovalerate and 2,3-dihydroxy-3-methylvalerate to (S)-3-methyl-2-oxopentanoate, the third step shared by valine and isoleucine biosynthesis and the source of the 2-oxoisovalerate used for leucine synthesis. Because it depends on mitochondrial Fe/S cluster assembly, Ilv3 activity collapses under iron limitation, lowering alpha-isopropylmalate and thereby Leu3-dependent transcription (e.g. of LEU1); Ilv3 activity is widely used as a reporter of mitochondrial [2Fe-2S] biogenesis. ilv3 mutants require isoleucine and valine.

Core Functions

Mitochondrial [2Fe-2S] dihydroxy-acid dehydratase (EC 4.2.1.9) catalysing the third shared step of branched-chain amino acid synthesis: dehydration of (R)-2,3-dihydroxyisovalerate to 2-oxoisovalerate (valine and leucine precursor) and of (2R,3R)-2,3-dihydroxy-3-methylpentanoate to (S)-3-methyl-2-oxopentanoate (isoleucine precursor). Its Fe/S dependence makes it the iron-sensitive node of the pathway.

Suggested Experiments

Experiment: Measure Ilv3 activity and 55Fe incorporation in isolated mitochondria from strains lacking individual late ISC factors (Isa1/Isa2, Iba57, Bol1, Grx5).

Hypothesis: Ilv3 [2Fe-2S] cluster insertion requires a specific late-acting ISC targeting factor distinct from Nfu1/Bol3.
