Abstract excerpt
Cellular iron levels must be tightly regulated to ensure sufficient iron for essential enzymatic functions while avoiding the harmful generation of toxic species. Here, to better understand how iron levels are controlled, we carry out genome-wide mutagenesis screens in human cells. Alongside mapping known components of iron sensing, we determine the relative contributions of iron uptake, iron recycling, ferritin...
