The mitochondrial protein frataxin is essential for heme biosynthesis in plants.

The FEBS journal - 1 Feb 2011

Abstract excerpt

Frataxin, a conserved mitochondrial protein implicated in cellular iron homeostasis, has been involved as the iron chaperone that delivers iron for the Fe-S cluster and heme biosynthesis. However, its role in iron metabolism remains unclear, especially in photosynthetic organisms. In previous work, we found that frataxin deficiency in Arabidopsis results in decreased activity of the mitochondrial Fe-S proteins...
