Journal ArticleDOI

Hephaestin, a ceruloplasmin homologue implicated in intestinal iron transport, is defective in the sla mouse.

TL;DR: It is suggested that the hephaestin protein is a multi–copper ferroxidase necessary for iron egress from intestinal enterocytes into the circulation and that it is an important link between copper and iron metabolism in mammals.
Journal ArticleDOI

The FET3 gene of S. cerevisiae encodes a multicopper oxidase required for ferrous iron uptake.

TL;DR: It is suggested that the catalytic activity of the Fet3 protein is required for cellular iron accumulation, similar to that of the blue multicopper oxidoreductases.
Journal ArticleDOI

Molecular characterization of a copper transport protein in S. cerevisiae: An unexpected role for copper in iron transport

TL;DR: The identification and characterization of CTR1, a gene in the yeast S. cerevisiae that encodes a multispanning plasma membrane protein specifically required for high affinity copper transport into the cell, provides an unexpected mechanistic link between the uptake of copper and iron.
Journal ArticleDOI

Bardet-Biedl syndrome proteins are required for the localization of G protein-coupled receptors to primary cilia.

TL;DR: It is reported that the proteins disrupted in the human ciliary disorder Bardet–Biedl syndrome are required for the localization of G protein-coupled receptors to primary cilia on central neurons.
