Ferrodoxins are iron-sulfur proteins that facilitate monooxygenase reactions catalyzed by P450 enzymes. The protein encoded by this gene is present in the mitochondrial matrix and transfers electrons from ferredoxin reductase to steroidogenic mitochondrial cytochrome P450 proteins. Alternative splic
Predicted to enable electron transfer activity. Predicted to be involved in [2Fe-2S] cluster assembly and electron transport chain. Located in mitochondrion. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in mitochondrial myopathy. Orthologous to human FDX2 (ferredoxin 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome
This gene represents a read-through transcript composed of Raver1 and Fdx1l sequence. This transcript is thought to be non-coding because it would be subject to nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD). [provided by RefSeq, Apr 2011]
