1 The ABC transporter Atm1p is required for mitochondrial iron homeostasis. Iron ATP binding cassette subfamily B member 7 Homo sapiens
2 Mitochondria deficient in Atm1p accumulate 30-fold higher levels of free iron as compared to wild-type organelles, i.e. three-fold more than mitochondria deficient in frataxin, the protein mutated in Friedreich"s ataxia. Iron ATP binding cassette subfamily B member 7 Homo sapiens
3 The increased mitochondrial iron content may be causative of the oxidative damage of heme-containing proteins in delta atm1 cells. Iron ATP binding cassette subfamily B member 7 Homo sapiens
4 Our data assign an important function to Atm1p in mitochondrial iron homeostasis. Iron ATP binding cassette subfamily B member 7 Homo sapiens
