Protein
Glutaredoxin-related protein 5, mitochondrial
Function
Monothiol glutaredoxin involved in the biogenesis of iron-sulfur clusters (PubMed:20364084). Involved in protein lipoylation, acting in the pathway that provides an iron-sulfur cluster to lipoate synthase (PubMed:24334290). Required for normal iron homeostasis. Required for normal regulation of hemoglobin synthesis by the iron-sulfur protein ACO1 (PubMed:20364084). May protect cells against apoptosis due to reactive oxygen species and oxidative stress (By similarity).
Similarity
Belongs to the glutaredoxin family. Monothiol subfamily.
