Also known as: Tesr; 4932433F15Rik; 4933425F03Rik
Summary: Enables ferritin receptor activity. Involved in several processes, including intracellular iron ion homeostasis; iron ion transmembrane transport; and protein homotrimerization. Acts upstream of or within cellular response to heat. Located in cell surface and plasma membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including eye; gonad; heart; spinal cord; and vertebral pre-cartilage condensation. Orthologous to human SCARA5 (scavenger receptor class A member 5).

Tesr is differentially expressed in the male vs. female embryonic and postnatal gonad, and may play a role in phagocytosis of apoptotic cells, cell-cell adhesion, and defense. [Tesr - testis expressed scavenger receptor]
Title: Novel scavenger receptor gene is differentially expressed in the embryonic and adult mouse testis.
Data show that the transferrin receptor TfR1 provided transferrin to the ureteric bud, but not to the capsule or the stroma, and that Scara5 bound serum ferritin and then stimulated its endocytosis from the cell surface with consequent iron delivery.
Title: Scara5 is a ferritin receptor mediating non-transferrin iron delivery.

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.
