SLC25A37 - Mitoferrin-1
Order number: 71791
Description
We are excited to introduce our off-the-shelf, full-length, active, and native Solute carrier family 25 member 37, commonly known as Mitoferrin-1. SLC25A37 is an essential mitochondrial iron importer, shuttling ferrous iron from the intermembrane space into the mitochondrial matrix. This is relevant for heme biosynthesis and can cause anemia if misregulated or mutated.
Our SLC25A37 protein has been solubilized and stabilized using our NativeMP™ platform, ensuring it retains its native structure and full biological activity, making it ideal for various research applications.

| Function | SLC25A37 (Mitoferrin-1) functions as the essential mitochondrial iron importer required for heme biosynthesis and iron-sulfur cluster assembly, particularly during red blood cell development. Therapeutically, targeting this transporter offers novel strategies to treat anemias and tissue ischemia by managing iron overload, or to combat aggressive cancers by disrupting their metabolic dependency on iron and modulating ferroptosis. |
