Over the past decade, however, the essentialcontributions of glutathione to cellular iron metabolism have come more and more into focus. GSH isindispensable in mitochondrial iron-sulfur (FeS) cluster biosynthesis, primarily by co-ligating FeSclusters as a cofactor of the CGFS-type (class II) glutaredoxins (Grxs). GSH is required for the exportof the yet to be defined FeS precursor from the mitochondria to the cytosol. In the cytosol, it is anessential cofactor, again of the multi-domain CGFS-type Grxs, master players in cellular iron and FeStrafficking. In this review, we summarize the recent advances and progress in this field. The mosturgent open questions are discussed, such as the role of GSH in the export of FeS precursors frommitochondria, the physiological roles of the CGFS-type Grx interactions with BolA-like proteins andthe cluster transfer between Grxs and recipient proteins}, language = {en} }
