FEA1 protein facilitates uptake of ferrous iron in yeast. The yeast ferric reductase (Δfer1fer2) mutant was transformed with the pESC–LEU–FEA1 vector. (A) RT-PCR expression of FEA1 transgenic yeast. Actin was used as an internal expression control. (B) Growth of yeast on synthetic defined SG-LEU media containing 50 μM FeCl3 or SG-LEU media containing 50 μM FeCl3 + 1 mM sodium ascorbate. Plates were grown at 28°C for 2–3 days.
