About Cyb5a

Summary

Predicted to enable enzyme binding activity and heme binding activity. Involved in response to cadmium ion. Located in endoplasmic reticulum membrane. Biomarker of pyelonephritis. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in methemoglobinemia and methemoglobinemia and ambiguous genitalia. Orthologous to human CYB5A (cytochrome b5 type A).
