Iron Regulates Cellular Metabolism and Mitophagy Through Epigenetic Control of mTORC1

Description:

Iron is an essential nutrient and is critical for cellular growth and metabolism. Here, we delineate a novel mechanism by which iron alters amino acid homeostasis and mTOR activity by remodeling the cellular epigenetic landscape. We find that iron deficiency inactivates Jumonji-C domain containing histone-demethylases, resulting in histone hyper-methylation and...
