Mitochondrial Ferritin: Its Role in Physiological and Pathological Conditions
In 2001, a new type of human ferritin was identified by searching for homologous sequences to H-ferritin in the human genome.After the demonstration that this ferritin is located specifically in the mitochondrion, it was called mitochondrial ferritin.Studies on the properties of this new type of ferritin have been limited by its very high homology
