SLC25A39 links mitochondrial GSH sensing with iron metabolism

Mol Cell. 2024 Feb 15;84(4):616-618. doi: 10.1016/j.molcel.2023.12.037.

Abstract

Two recent studies by Liu et al.1 in Science and Shi et al.2 in this issue of Molecular Cell identify a mitochondrial GSH-sensing mechanism that couples SLC25A39-mediated GSH import to iron metabolism, advancing our understanding of nutrient sensing within organelles.
