Source Description
UniProtTranscription factor. Essential protein involved in iron uptake responses. Regulates FRO2 at the level of mRNA accumulation and IRT1 at the level of protein accumulation. Confers enhanced iron mobilization responses at low iron supply. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15539473, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15556641, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16117851}.
