FOXRED1
Description
FOXRED1, also known as Ferredoxin Reductase 1, is a critical enzyme involved in maintaining cellular redox balance. It catalyzes the transfer of electrons from NADPH to ferredoxin, a crucial step in various metabolic processes, including iron-sulfur cluster biosynthesis, steroid hormone biosynthesis, and detoxification. FOXRED1‘s role in regulating reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels makes it essential for cellular survival and function.
