Gpx5 - glutathione peroxidase 5 Gene

Also Known as Arep

Species: Mus musculus

Gene Type: protein coding
Gene ID: 14780

Summary

Predicted to enable Glutathione Peroxidase activity. Acts upstream of or within cellular response to oxidative stress. Located in extracellular space and sperm plasma membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including male reproductive gland or organ and placenta. Orthologous to human GPX5 (Glutathione Peroxidase 5).
