== Function ==
[[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/BFR_ECOLI BFR_ECOLI]] Iron-storage protein, whose ferroxidase center binds Fe(2+) ions, oxidizes them by dioxygen to Fe(3+), and participates in the subsequent Fe(3+) oxide mineral core formation within the central cavity of the protein complex. The mineralized iron core can contain as many as 2700 iron atoms/24-meric molecule.<ref>PMID:10769150</ref> <ref>PMID:14636073</ref>

== Publication Abstract from PubMed ==
Escherichia coli bacterioferritin was serendipitously crystallized in a novel cubic crystal form and its structure could be determined to 2.5 A resolution despite a high degree of merohedral twinning. This is the first report of crystallographic data on 'as-isolated' E. coli bacterioferritin. The ferroxidase active site contains positive difference density consistent with two metal ions that had co-purified with the protein. X-ray fluorescence studies suggest that the metal composition is different from that of previous structures and is a mix of zinc and native iron ions. The ferroxidase-centre configuration displays a similar flexibility as previously noted for other bacterioferritins.
