Structural basis of ion transport and inhibition in ferroportin
Ferroportin is an iron exporter essential for releasing cellular iron into circulation and is inhibited by a peptide hormone, hepcidin. Here authors present cryo-EM structures of the ferroportin from the primate Philippine tarsier (TsFpn) with and without hepcidin and show that TsFpn is an electrone...
