Function |
Mitochondrial iron transporter that specifically mediates iron uptake in developing erythroid cells, thereby playing an essential role in heme biosynthesis. The iron delivered into the mitochondria, presumably as Fe(2+), is then probably delivered to ferrochelatase to catalyze Fe(2+) incorporation into protoprophyrin IX to make heme (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.

Subcellular Location |
Mitochondrion inner membrane {ECO:0000250}; Multi-pass membrane protein {ECO:0000250}.
