Full name: glutaredoxin 5

Gene type: protein coding

RefSeq status: REVIEWED

Summary: This gene encodes a mitochondrial protein, which is evolutionarily conserved. It is involved in the biogenesis of iron-sulfur clusters, which are required for normal iron homeostasis. Mutations in the human gene are associated with autosomal recessive pyridoxine-refractory sideroblastic anemia. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2015]
