Summary: Predicted to enable several functions, including ferroxidase activity; iron ion binding activity; and iron ion sequestering activity. Involved in negative regulation of fibroblast proliferation. Predicted to be located in autolysosome. Predicted to be active in cytosol and membrane. Biomarker of congestive heart failure and hepatocellular carcinoma. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in hemochromatosis type 5 and neurodegeneration with brain iron accumulation. Orthologous to human FTH1 (ferritin heavy chain 1). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
