Identification
HMDB Protein ID HMDBP00829
Secondary Accession Numbers
  • 6110
  • HMDBP04839
Name Phospholipid hydroperoxide glutathione peroxidase, mitochondrial
Synonyms
  1. GPx-4
  2. GSHPx-4
  3. Glutathione peroxidase 4
  4. PHGPx
Gene Name GPX4
Protein Type Enzyme
Biological Properties
General Function Involved in glutathione peroxidase activity
Specific Function Protects cells against membrane lipid peroxidation and cell death. Required for normal sperm development and male fertility. Could play a major role in protecting mammals from the toxicity of ingested lipid hydroperoxides. Essential for embryonic development. Protects from radiation and oxidative damage (By similarity).
