Research AreasOthers

Function

Stores iron in a soluble, non-toxic, readily available form. Important for iron homeostasis. Iron is taken up in the ferrous form and deposited as ferric hydroxides after oxidation.

Biological Context

Subcellular Location: Cytoplasmic vesicle, autophagosome; Cytoplasm; Autolysosome

Protein Biology

Function

Stores iron in a soluble, non-toxic, readily available form. Important for iron homeostasis. Iron is taken up in the ferrous form and deposited as ferric hydroxides after oxidation. Also plays a role in delivery of iron to cells. Mediates iron uptake in capsule cells of the developing kidney (By similarity). Delivery to lysosomes by the cargo receptor NCOA4 for autophagic degradation and release or iron (By similarity)

Subcellular Location

Cytoplasmic vesicle, autophagosome; Cytoplasm; Autolysosome

Subunit

Oligomer of 24 subunits. There are two types of subunits: L (light) chain and H (heavy) chain. The major chain can be light or heavy, depending on the species and tissue type. The functional molecule forms a roughly spherical shell with a diameter of 12 nm and contains a central cavity into which the insoluble mineral iron core is deposited (By similarity). Interacts with NCOA4 (By similarity)
