• Iron metabolism and iron disorders revisited in the hepcidin era (2020, positive): “Mitoferrin 1 and 2 are iron transporters of the inner mitochondrial membrane, the former being essential for zebrafish and murine erythropoiesis.(17) Ferritin may store up to 4,500 iron atoms in a shell-like structure formed by 24 chains, comprising both heavy (H) chains, with ferroxidase activity, ”
• Homeostasis and toxicology of essential metals (2012, background): “IRON 223 across the mitochondria inner membrane occurs via mitoferrin, identified in the zebrafish mutant frascati, whose phenotype is impaired heme synthesis (Shaw et al., 2006).”
