This group of enzymes use a [4Fe-4S] cluster to cleave S-adenosylmethionine (SAM) reductively, generating a radical which is generally transferred to a substrate. It was demonstrated that through their [4Fe-4S] cluster catalytic activity, eukaryotic viperins convert a ribonucleotide, the cytidine triphosphate (CTP) into a modified ribonucleotide, the 3'-deoxy-3',4'-didehydro-CTP (ddhCTP) :ref{doi=10.1038/s41586-018-0238-4}. -- GitLab
