20 Jun 2025
Abstract excerpt
The human sideroflexin (SFXN) gene family, also classified as solute carrier family 56 (SLC56), encodes a group of five mitochondrial transmembrane proteins (SFXN1-SFXN5) involved in key aspects of mitochondrial metabolism, cellular homeostasis, and development. SFXNs are highly conserved across eukaryotic species, with evolutionary the origin traced back to the earliest metazoans. Functionally, each of the five...
