Summary: Predicted to enable heme binding activity; molybdopterin cofactor binding activity; and sulfite oxidase activity. Predicted to be involved in response to nutrient and sulfur compound metabolic process. Located in mitochondrion. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; genitourinary system; integumental system; nervous system; and sensory organ. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in inherited metabolic disorder and isolated sulfite oxidase deficiency. Orthologous to human SUOX (sulfite oxidase).

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.
