However, how mitochondria sense the abundance of metabolites and regulate metabolic homeostasis is not well understood. Here, we will discuss glutathione (GSH), a critical redox metabolite in mitochondria, and our identification of a feedback mechanism that controls its abundance through the mitochondrial GSH transporter, SLC25A39. We will additionally discuss methods to identify cellular nutrient transporters.
