3.A.1.210.8
Mitochondrial ABC transporter, ATM3, involved in iron homeostasis (Chen et al. 2007) and heavy metal resistance (Kim et al. 2006). There are three isoforms: ATM1, ATM2 and ATM3 (Chen et al., 2007). ATM3 can replace the yeast iron/sulfur cluster exporter better than ATM1 or ATM2. Atm3 is most similar to the human and yeast homologues, TC# 3.A.1.210.4 and 3.A.1.210.1, 51% and 47% identical, respectively.  It may function in cytosolic iron-sulfur cluster biogenesis (Bernard et al. 2009) as well as molybdenum cofactor biosynthesis (Teschner et al. 2010).  It performs an essential function in the generation of cytoplasmic iron-sulfur proteins by mediating export of Fe/S cluster precursors. Not required for mitochondrial and plastid Fe-S enzymes. Probably involved in the export of cyclic pyranopterin monophosphate (cPMP) from mitochondria into the cytosol. Mediates glutathione-dependent resistance to heavy metals such as cadmium and lead, as well as their transport from roots to leaves. Regulates nonprotein thiols (NPSH) and the cellular level of glutathione (GSH); but see also, 3.A.210.15.  This protein, also called ABCB25, is of 728 aas with 6 TMSs and a domain order of MC.  It transports glutathione poly sulfides (Lefèvre and Boutry 2018).
