Summary: Enables heme binding activity. Acts upstream of or within hydrogen peroxide metabolic process and positive regulation of intrinsic apoptotic signaling pathway. Located in mitochondrion. Is expressed in embryo. Orthologous to human CYCTP (cytochrome c, testis, pseudogene). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]

What's a GeneRIF?

These findings suggest that heat stress of testes triggers the release of cytochrome c from mitochondria in spermatogenic cells, leading to the activation of an apoptotic pathway.
Title: Suppression of cytochrome c release and apoptosis in testes with heat stress by minocycline.
T-Cc can catalyze reduction of H(2)O(2) 3 times faster than somatic cell Cc(S-Cc); T-Cc heme has greater resistance to degradation by H(2)O(2); implies T-Cc can protect sperm from H(2)O(2)damage; T-Cc apoptotic activity is 3 to 5 times greater than S-Cc
Title: Remarkably high activities of testicular cytochrome c in destroying reactive oxygen species and in triggering apoptosis.

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.
