MFRN1_HUMAN (UniProt)

Gene names: SLC25A37, MFRN, MSCP, HT015
Protein names and data: MFRN1_HUMAN, Full=Mitoferrin-1, Full=Mitochondrial iron transporter 1;Full=Mitochondrial solute carrier protein;Full=Solute carrier family 25 member 37; Length: 338 a.a., Mass: 37323 Da,
fasta formatted sequence

Function: Mitochondrial iron transporter that specifically mediates iron uptake in developing erythroid cells, thereby playing an essential role in heme biosynthesis. The iron delivered into the mitochondria, presumably as Fe(2+), is then probably delivered to ferrochelatase to catalyze Fe(2+) incorporation into protoprophyrin IX to make heme (By similarity)
Cellular location: Mitochondrion inner membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein (By similarity)
