Biomineralization of the ferritin iron core involves a complex series of events in which H2O2 is produced during iron oxidation by O2 at a dinuclear centre, the ‘ferroxidase site’, located on the H-subunit of mammalian proteins. Rapid-freeze quench Mössbauer spectroscopy was used to probe the early events of iron oxidation and mineralization in recombinant human ferritin containing 24 H-subunits. The spectra reveal that a μ-1,2-peroxodiFe(III) intermediate (species P) with Mössbauer parameters δ (isomer shift) = 0.58mm/s and ΔEQ (quadrupole splitting) = 1.07mm/s at 4.2K is formed within 50ms of mixing Fe(II) with the apoprotein. This intermediate accounts for almost all of the iron in the sample at 160ms. It subsequently decays within 10s to form a μ-oxodiFe(III)—protein complex (species D), which partially vacates the ferroxidase sites of the protein to generate Fe(III) clusters (species C) at a reaction time of 10min. The intermediate peroxodiFe(III) complex does not decay under O2-limiting conditions, an observation suggesting inhibition of decay by unreacted Fe(II), or a possible role for O2 in ferritin biomineralization in addition to that of direct oxidation of iron(II).

When ferritin is reconstituted from Fe and apoferritin in vitro in the presence of Pi, the product obtained differs both from native ferritin and from ferritin reconstituted in the absence of Pi. When the latter is incubated with Pi the product resembles native ferritin with respect both to the pattern of Pi incorporated per molecule or per Fe atom and to the ease of release of this Pi relative to Fe release. It is concluded that much of the Pi of native ferritin is adsorbed on surfaces of ferritin iron-core crystallites. The results also suggest that Pi is not present at the intracellular site of Fe incorporation into ferritin, but is added after Fe.
