This structural paper shows that the Dps monomer has essentially the same fold as ferritin and that Dps forms a dodecamer which has a hollow core and pores at three folds. On the basis of the structural similarity to ferritin, the authors propose that Dps protects DNA from oxidative damage by sequestering iron.

Mol Microbiol 1998, 29:189-198. This report describes the three fur homologs in Bacillus subtilis. One homolog is structurally and functionally related to E. coli Fur, whilse a second homolog was shown to correspond to PerR, the peroxide regulon repressor. PerR appears to require a divalent metal ion to activate its DNA binding activity. The authors speculate that the bound ion may play a key role in peroxide sensing, by metal-catalysed oxidation reactions that could damage PerR or by a change in the oxidation of the bound metal.
