Gene Gene information from NCBI Gene database.
Entrez ID 51022
Gene name Glutaredoxin 2
Gene symbol GLRX2
Synonyms (NCBI Gene)
CGI-133GRX2
Chromosome 1
Chromosome location 1q31.2
Summary The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the glutaredoxin family of proteins, which maintain cellular thiol homeostasis. These proteins are thiol-disulfide oxidoreductases that use a glutathione-binding site and one or two active cysteines in their
