CP | Ceruloplasmin; Ceruloplasmin is a blue, copper-binding (6-7 atoms per molecule) glycoprotein. It has ferroxidase activity oxidizing Fe(2+) to Fe(3+) without releasing radical oxygen species. It is involved in iron transport across the cell membrane. Provides Cu(2+) ions for the ascorbate-mediated deaminase degradation of the heparan sulfate chains of GPC1. May also play a role in fetal lung development or pulmonary antioxidant defense (By similarity). (1065 aa) | ||||
HEPH | Hephaestin; May function as a ferroxidase for ferrous (II) to ferric ion (III) conversion and may be involved in copper transport and homeostasis. Implicated in iron homeostasis and may mediate iron efflux associated to ferroportin 1. (1212 aa) | ||||
HEPHL1 | Ferroxidase HEPHL1; Is a copper-binding glycoprotein with ferroxidase activity. It oxidizes Fe(2+) to Fe(3+) without releasing radical oxygen species. May be involved in the regulation of intracellular iron content. (1159 aa) |
