Identification of an Arabidopsis mitoferrinlike carrier protein involved in Fe metabolism

► Arabidopsis AtMfl1 (Mitoferrinlike1) belongs to the mitochondrial carriers family. ► AtMfl1 expression correlates with genes involved in chloroplastic metabolism. ► atmfl1 KO mutants show reduced Fe content, reduced vegetative growth and reduced AtFer1 ferritin expression. ► AtMFL1 is possibly involved in Fe transport into chloroplasts.
