FXN ELISA Kit (Mouse) (OKCD00331)

Description of target: Promotes the biosynthesis of heme and assembly and repair of iron-sulfur clusters by delivering Fe2+ to proteins involved in these pathways. May play a role in the protection against iron-catalyzed oxidative stress through its ability to catalyze the oxidation of Fe2+ to Fe3+; the oligomeric form but not the monomeric form has in vitro ferroxidase activity. May be able to store large amounts of iron in the form of a ferrihydrite mineral by oligomerization. Modulates the RNA-binding activity of ACO1 (By similarity).By similarity1 Publication&#xd; &lt;p>Manually curated information for which there is published experimental evidence.&lt;/p>&#xd; &#xd; &#xd; &lt;p>&lt;a href="/manual/evidences#ECO:0000269">More…&lt;/a>&lt;/p> Manual assertion based on experiment iniRef.6"Elucidation of the mechanism of mitochondrial iron loading in Friedreich's ataxia by analysis of a mouse mutant."_x005F_x005F_x000D_Huang M.L., Becker E.M., Whitnall M., Rahmanto Y.S., Ponka P., Richardson D.R._x005F_x005F_x000D_Proc.
