    Summary
    Enables phospholipid-hydroperoxide glutathione peroxidase activity. Involved in cellular response to reactive oxygen species and regulation of peptide transport. Located in cytosol and nucleus. Is expressed in intestine and nervous system. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in colorectal adenocarcinoma; colorectal cancer; and spondylometaphyseal dysplasia Sedaghatian type. Orthologous to human GPX4 (glutathione peroxidase 4). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]
