Function: Endosomal ferrireductase required for efficient transferrin-dependent iron uptake in erythroid cells. Participates in erythroid iron homeostasis by reducing Fe(3+) to Fe(2+). Can also reduce of Cu(2+) to Cu(1+), suggesting that it participates in copper homeostasis. Uses NADP(+) as acceptor. May play a role downstream of p53/TP53 to interface apoptosis and cell cycle progression. Indirectly involved in exosome secretion by facilitating the secretion of proteins such as TCTP.
Disease:
Cellular location: Endosome membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein (By similarity). Note=Localizes to vesicular-like structures at the plasma membrane and around the nucleus.
Tissue specificity: Expressed in adult bone marrow, placenta, liver, skeletal muscle and pancreas. Down-regulated in hepatocellular carcinoma.
