proteína frataxina
Scope note: Proteína implicada en la transferencia de hierro y azufre a la unidad de ensamblaje de complejos de hierro-azufre (ISC) para la síntesis de novo de un complejo [2Fe-2S], el primer paso de la biogénesis de proteínas mitocondriales de hierro-azufre. Su deficiencia da lugar a la enfermedad neurodegenerativa ATAXIA DE FRIEDREICH.
