|
| Function |
Involved in redox regulation of the cell. Can reduce H(2)O(2) and short chain organic, fatty acid, and phospholipid hydroperoxides. May play a role in the regulation of phospholipid turnover as well as in protection against oxidative injury (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.
|
| Subcellular Location |
Cytoplasm {ECO:0000250}. Lysosome {ECO:0000250}. Cytoplasmic vesicle {ECO:0000250}. Note=Also found in lung secretory organelles. {ECO:0000250}.
|
| Tissue Specificity |
Highly expressed in heart, kidney and liver. Moderate expression in brain and stomach. Very low levels in intestine.
|
| Top Pathways |
Phenylalanine metabolism
