Glycogen branching enzyme controls cellular iron homeostasis via Iron Regulatory Protein 1 and mitoNEET
Higher organisms regulate cellular iron concentrations through Iron Regulatory Proteins (IRPs), which regulate specific messenger RNAs. Here Huynh et al. show that IRP1 requires a Glycogen Branching Enzyme for proper function, and that IRP1 has additional regulatory roles in cell nuclei.
