Function |
Endosomal ferrireductase required for efficient transferrin-dependent iron uptake in erythroid cells. Participates in erythroid iron homeostasis by reducing Fe(3+) to Fe(2+). Can also reduce of Cu(2+) to Cu(1+), suggesting that it participates in copper homeostasis. Uses NADP(+) as acceptor. May play a role downstream of p53/TP53 to interface apoptosis and cell cycle progression. Indirectly involved in exosome secretion by facilitating the secretion of proteins such as TCTP. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15319436, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16651434}.
|
Subcellular Location |
Endosome membrane {ECO:0000250}; Multi-pass membrane protein {ECO:0000250}. Note=Localizes to vesicular-like structures at the plasma membrane and around the nucleus.
|
Tissue Specificity |
Expressed in adult bone marrow, placenta, liver, skeletal muscle and pancreas. Down-regulated in hepatocellular carcinoma. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12606722, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15885357, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16227996}.
