Abstract
⺠We show that RNAi of human FDX1 compromises iron-sulfur cluster biogenesis. ⺠We also show that RNAi of human FDX2 compromises iron-sulfur cluster biogenesis. ⺠The two homologous human ferredoxins function in iron-sulfur cluster biogenesis. ⺠RNAi of the human FDX reductase (FDXR) compromises iron-sulfur cluster biogenesis. ⺠FDX-FDXR dysfunction disturbs mitochondrial and cytosolic iron homeostasis.
