Popis: | Iron-containing proteins rely on the incorporation of a set of iron cofactors for activity. The cofactors must be synthesized or assembled from raw materials located within the cell. The chemical nature of this pool of raw material - referred to as the labile iron pool - has become clearer with the identification of micro- and macro-molecules that coordinate iron within the cell. These molecules function as a buffer system for the management of intracellular iron and are the focus of this review, with emphasis on the major iron chaperone protein coordinating the labile iron pool: poly C-binding protein 1. |
