Summary: Enables several functions, including glutathione binding activity; glutathione-disulfide reductase (NADPH) activity; and nucleotide binding activity. Involved in several processes, including response to iron(III) ion; response to ischemia; and response to vitamin A. Predicted to be located in external side of plasma membrane. Predicted to be active in cytosol and mitochondrion. Used to study cataract and transient cerebral ischemia. Biomarker of several diseases, including acute kidney failure (multiple); artery disease (multiple); hemorrhagic cystitis; myoglobinuria; and neurodegenerative disease (multiple). Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in macular degeneration. Orthologous to human GSR (glutathione-disulfide reductase). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]

Glutathione reductase was increased indicating that a reduction in oxidative damage protection may be responsible for accelerated telomere shortening over time, resulting in increased cellular senescence, loss of renal function, and death in male rats.
Title: Lower antioxidant capacity and elevated p53 and p21 may be a link between gender disparity in renal telomere shortening, albuminuria, and longevity.
Zinc toxicity in astrocytes is associated with the generation of intracellular reactive oxygen species, rather than the inhibition of glutathione reductase.
Title: Zinc stimulates the production of toxic reactive oxygen species (ROS) and inhibits glutathione reductase in astrocytes.

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.
