Except ATM3 and ERV1 which code for the two protein components of the ISC machinery, all other genes code for proteins of the CIA machinery. Yeast and human names have been indicated. ATM1 (At4g28630), ATM2 (At4g28620), AE7.2/AEL1 (At3g50845) and AE7.3/AEL2 (At3g09380) genes have not been listed here considering that they are not able to complement atm3 and ae7 mutants. There are putative additional CIA1 (At4g32990) and DRE2 genes (At5g18362) but, from EST or transcriptomic data, there is no evidence that they are expressed.
