Gsr - glutathione-disulfide reductase Gene

Rattus norvegicus
Gene ID: 116686 | Gene type: protein coding

About Gsr

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. Located in cytosol and mitochondrion. Used to study cataract and transient cerebral ischemia. Biomarker of several diseases, including Parkinsonism; acute kidney failure (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, Apr 2022]
