About Hbz

Summary

Predicted to enable several functions, including heme binding activity; oxygen binding activity; and oxygen carrier activity. Predicted to contribute to haptoglobin binding activity and peroxidase activity. Predicted to be involved in hydrogen peroxide catabolic process. Predicted to act upstream of or within erythrocyte maturation and negative regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Predicted to be part of haptoglobin-hemoglobin complex and Hemoglobin complex. Orthologous to human HBZ (Hemoglobin subunit zeta). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
