Abstract excerpt
Deletion of two homologous genes, MRS3 and MRS4, that encode mitochondrial iron transporters affects the activity of the vacuolar iron importer Ccc1. Ccc1 levels are decreased in Deltamrs3Deltamrs4 cells, but the activity of the transporter is increased, resulting is reduced cytosolic iron. Overe...
