Powering down the Pfam website
On October 5th, we began redirecting traffic from Pfam (pfam.xfam.org) to InterPro (www.ebi.ac.uk/interpro). The Pfam website will remain available at pfam-legacy.xfam.org until January 2023, when it will be decommissioned. You can read more about the sunset period in our blog post.

Clan: Ferritin (CL0044)

Summary

Ferritin-like Superfamily Add an annotation

The members of this clan all share a distinctive four helical bundle. The four helices are arranged antiparallel with a left-handed twist. This helical bundle is distinguished from others by the long connection between the second and third helices. Some of the members contain a Fe or Mn dimer at the centre of the helical bundle. The ferritin fold was first described by Murzin AG and Chothia C, Cur Opin Struc Biol 1992, 2:895-903.

This clan contains 27 families and the total number of domains in the clan is 88261. The clan was built by RD Finn.

Structures

For those sequences which have a structure in the Protein DataBank, we use the mapping between UniProt, PDB and Pfam coordinate systems from the MSD group, to allow us to map Pfam domains onto UniProt three-dimensional structures. The table below shows the mapping between the Pfam families in this clan, the corresponding UniProt entries, and the region of the three-dimensional structures that are available for that sequence.
