Any process that stops, prevents or reduces the frequency, rate or extent of the directed movement of iron ions from one side of a membrane to the other. Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of the directed movement of iron ions from one side of a membrane to the other. The directed movement of inorganic cations with a valency of two or three into, out of, within or between cells by means of some external agent such as a transporter or pore. Inorganic cations are atoms or small molecules with a positive charge which do not contain carbon in covalent linkage. The process whereby a solute is transported from one side of a membrane to the other. This process includes the actual movement of the solute, and any regulation and preparatory steps, such as reduction of the solute. A process whereby an ion is transported from one side of a membrane to the other. Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of the directed movement of iron ions (Fe) from one side of a membrane to the other. The directed movement of transition metal ions into, out of, within or between cells by means of some external agent such as a transporter or pore. A transition metal is an element whose atom has an incomplete d-subshell of extranuclear electrons, or which gives rise to a cation or cations with an incomplete d-subshell. Transition metals often have more than one valency state. Biologically relevant transition metals include vanadium, manganese, iron, copper, cobalt, nickel, molybdenum and silver. The directed, high-affinity movement of iron (Fe) ions into, out of, within or between cells by means of some external agent such as a transporter or pore. In high affinity transport the transporter is able to bind the solute even if it is only present at very low concentrations. The directed movement of iron (Fe) ions into, out of, within or between cells by means of some external agent such as a transporter or pore. The directed, low-affinity movement of iron (Fe) ions into, out of, within or between cells by means of some external agent such as a transporter or pore. In low affinity transport the transporter is able to bind the solute only if it is only present at very low concentrations. The directed movement of ferrous iron (Fe(II) or Fe2+) ions across a membrane into a cell or organelle. A process whereby an iron ion is transported from one side of a membrane to the other. The directed movement of charged atoms or small charged molecules into, out of, within or between cells by means of some external agent such as a transporter or pore.
