CYB561D2
Description
The CYB561D2 (cytochrome b561 family member D2) is a protein-coding gene located on chromosome 3.
CYB561D2 acts as a transmembrane reductase, utilizing ascorbate as an electron donor within the cytoplasm. It then transfers these electrons across the endoplasmic reticulum membranes, ultimately reducing monodehydro-L-ascorbate radical and iron cations (Fe(3+)) within the lumen of the ER.
CYB561D2 is also known as 101F6, TSCytb, TSP10, XXcos-LUCA11.4.
