Human mitochondrial ferritin exhibits highly unusual iron-O2 chemistry distinct from that of cytosolic ferritins

Abstract Ferritins are ubiquitous proteins that function in iron storage/detoxification by catalyzing the oxidation of Fe2+ ions and solubilizing the resulting Fe3+-oxo mineral. Mammalian tissues that are metabolically highly active contain, in addition to the widespread cytosolic ferritin, a ferrit...
