Summary
Predicted to enable peroxidase activity. Involved in kynurenine metabolic process and ommochrome biosynthetic process. Located in lysosome. Is expressed in adult head and spermatozoon. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in congenital hypothyroidism; glomerulonephritis; and thyroid dyshormonogenesis 2A. Orthologous to human TPO (thyroid peroxidase).
