Iron speciation in the cytosol: an overview

Abstract: The nature of the cytosolic iron pool remains largely uncharacterized, although a range of candidate ligands and chaperones have been proposed. Herein an overview is presented of cytosolic non heme and non iron-sulphur cluster protein iron binding sites and the influence of ligands on the redox activity of iron. This analysis leads to the concept of iron(II) glutathione functioning as the labile cytosolic iron pool and offers a means for the selection of iron over manganese in subsequent incorporation into a w… Show more

“…The main storage protein is ferritin, but other storage proteins exist such as hemosiderin [11,12]. Additionally, cells possess a pool of free iron known as the labile iron pool [13]. This pool is considered transient but necessary as the source of iron for newly synthesized proteins that require iron as a co-factor.…”

“…[6] However deferiprone has two disadvantages, namely rapid metabolism [7] and initiation of reversible agranulocytosis in approximately 1% of patients receiving the drug. [8] Metabolism leads to glucuronidation of the 3-hydroxyl function, [7] thereby removing the chelating ability of the molecule.…”
