Does tyrosine phosphorylation of PHB1 plays a role in its iron binding function or potentially in other mitochondrial attributes of PHB1? A schematic diagram showing a potential role of the phosphorylation of PHB1 at tyrosine (for example, Y114) residue(s) in the iron binding function of PHB. This may be because a number of tyrosine kinases (for example, the RTK and Src family kinases) that phosphorylate PHB are known to localize to the mitochondria. RTK -receptor tyrosine kinase; p -phosphorylated; Y—tyrosine.
