BolA-like protein 1; Mitochondrial matrix protein involved in Fe-S cluster biogenesis; facilitates [4Fe-2S] cluster inception into mitochondrial proteins such as lipoate synthase and succinate dehydrogenase; interacts and may function with Grx5p at an early step in Fe-S cluster biosynthesis; forms dimeric complexes with Grx5p and Nfu1p that alter the stability of shared Fe/S clusters; sequence similarity to human BOLA family member, BOLA1 and S. pombe uvi31, a putative DNA repair protein.

Monothiol glutaredoxin-4; Glutathione-dependent oxidoreductase; hydroperoxide and superoxide-radical responsive; monothiol glutaredoxin subfamily member along with Grx3p and Grx5p; protects cells from oxidative damage; with Grx3p, binds to Aft1p in iron-replete conditions, promoting its dissociation from promoters; mutant has increased aneuploidy tolerance; transcription regulated by Yap5p; GRX4 has a paralog, GRX3, that arose from the whole genome duplication.

Putative Xaa-Pro aminopeptidase FRA1; Protein involved in negative regulation of iron regulon transcription; forms an iron independent complex with Fra2p, Grx3p, and Grx4p; cytosolic; mutant fails to repress transcription of iron regulon and is defective in spore formation; Belongs to the peptidase M24B family.

Iron-regulated transcriptional activator; activates genes involved in intracellular iron use and required for iron homeostasis and resistance to oxidative stress; AFT2 has a paralog, AFT1, that arose from the whole genome duplication.

Component of the cytosolic Fe-S protein assembly (CIA) machinery; contains an Fe-S cluster that receives electrons from NADPH via the action of Tah18p in an early step in the CIA pathway; ortholog of human Ciapin1; protein abundance increases in response to DNA replication stress; inviability of the null mutant is functionally complemented by human CIAPIN1.

BolA-like protein 3; Protein involved in Fe-S cluster transfer to mitochondrial clients; protects [4Fe-4S] clusters from damage due to oxidative stress by acting along with Nfu1p at a late step in the transfer of [4Fe-4S] clusters from the ISA complex to mitochondrial client proteins like lipoate synthase and succinate dehydrogenase; sequence similarity to human BOLA family member, BOLA3, mutations of which are associated with Multiple Mitochondria Dysfunctions Syndrome (MMDS2).

Monothiol glutaredoxin-5, mitochondrial; Glutathione-dependent oxidoreductase; mitochondrial matrix protein involved at an early step in the biogenesis of iron-sulfur centers along with Bol1p; hydroperoxide and superoxide-radical responsive; monothiol glutaredoxin subfamily member along with Grx3p and Grx4p.

Iron-regulated transcriptional activator AFT1; Transcription factor involved in iron utilization and homeostasis; binds consensus site PyPuCACCCPu and activates transcription in response to changes in iron availability; in iron-replete conditions localization is regulated by Grx3p, Grx4p, and Fra2p, and promoter binding is negatively regulated via Grx3p-Grx4p binding; AFT1 has a paralog, AFT2, that arose from the whole genome duplication; relative distribution to the nucleus increases upon DNA replication stress.

Glutaredoxin-8; Glutaredoxin that employs a dithiol mechanism of catalysis; monomeric; activity is low and null mutation does not affect sensitivity to oxidative stress; GFP-fusion protein localizes to the cytoplasm; expression strongly induced by arsenic.
