Heph - hephaestin Gene
Also Known as Cpl; sla; mKIAA0698; C130006F04Rik
Species: Mus musculus
Summary
Predicted to enable copper ion binding activity; ferrous iron binding activity; and ferroxidase activity. Acts upstream of or within erythrocyte differentiation. Predicted to be located in basolateral plasma membrane and perinuclear region of cytoplasm. Predicted to be active in plasma membrane. Orthologous to human HEPH (hephaestin).
