Journal ArticleDOI

Balancing Acts: Molecular Control of Mammalian Iron Metabolism

TL;DR: The study of iron biology has provided novel insights into gene regulation and unveiled remarkable links to the immune system.
Journal ArticleDOI

Two to Tango: Regulation of Mammalian Iron Metabolism

TL;DR: How the two distinct systems of iron metabolism function and how they "tango" together in a coordinated manner are described are described.
Journal ArticleDOI

A Novel Duodenal Iron-Regulated Transporter, IREG1, Implicated in the Basolateral Transfer of Iron to the Circulation

TL;DR: The isolation and characterization of a novel cDNA (Ireg1) encoding a duodenal protein that is localized to the basolateral membrane of polarized epithelial cells are described and it is concluded that IREG1 represents the long-sought duodental iron export protein and is upregulated in the iron overload disease, hereditary hemochromatosis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Molecular control of vertebrate iron metabolism: mRNA-based regulatory circuits operated by iron, nitric oxide, and oxidative stress

TL;DR: The discovery of two IRE-regulated mRNAs encoding enzymes of the mitochondrial citric acid cycle may represent the beginnings of elucidating regulatory coupling between iron and energy metabolism, and IRP-1 has highlighted an unexpected role for iron sulfur clusters as post-translational regulatory switches.
