Summary
Enables protein-disulfide reductase activity. Predicted to be involved in response to hydrogen peroxide and response to organic substance. Located in mitochondrion. Is expressed in several structures, including adrenal gland; alimentary system; genitourinary system; nervous system; and respiratory system. Orthologous to human GLRX2 (glutaredoxin 2).

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
