Gsr Gene Summary [Mouse]
Enables glutathione-disulfide reductase (NADPH) activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including cell redox homeostasis; cellular response to oxidative stress; and glutathione metabolic process. Located in external side of plasma membrane. Is expressed in brain ventricular layer; gut; lung; metanephros; and retina. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in cataract; congenital nonspherocytic hemolytic anemia 10; and macular degeneration. Orthologous to human GSR (glutathione-disulfide reductase).

Protein Domains
A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in mouse Gsr often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
