Summary
Predicted to enable several functions, including identical protein binding activity; molecular sequestering activity; and thioredoxin peroxidase activity. Predicted to be involved in cell redox homeostasis; hydrogen peroxide catabolic process; and response to oxidative stress. Predicted to act upstream of or within several processes, including negative regulation of male germ cell proliferation; peptidyl-proline hydroxylation to 4-hydroxy-L-proline; and protein maturation by protein folding. Located in extracellular space and smooth endoplasmic reticulum. Orthologous to human PRDX4 (peroxiredoxin 4). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jan 2025]

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.
