DHAD can accommodate [Fe2S2] and [Fe4S4] clusters. Only the [Fe2S2] cluster-bound form is catalytically active. The [Fe2S2] cluster is coordinated by at least one non-cysteinyl ligand, which can be replaced by the thiol group(s) of dithiothreitol. [Fe2S2] cluster-containing NFU2 protein is likely the physiological cluster donor for in vivo maturation of DHAD
