Summary
Enables peroxiredoxin activity. Predicted to be involved in cell redox homeostasis; hydrogen peroxide catabolic process; and removal of superoxide radicals. Predicted to be located in cytoplasm and extracellular exosome. Predicted to be active in cytosol. Is expressed in adult head and spermatozoon. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in methylmalonic aciduria and homocystinuria type cblC. Orthologous to human PRDX1 (peroxiredoxin 1) and PRDX2 (peroxiredoxin 2).
