Summary Summary of gene provided in NCBI Entrez Gene.
This gene encodes the heavy subunit of ferritin, the major intracellular iron storage protein in prokaryotes and eukaryotes. It is composed of 24 subunits of the heavy and light ferritin chains. Variation in ferritin subunit composition may affect the rat

Protein name Ferritin heavy chain (Ferritin H subunit) (EC 1.16.3.1) (Cell proliferation-inducing gene 15 protein) [Cleaved into: Ferritin heavy chain, N-terminally processed]
Protein function Stores iron in a soluble, non-toxic, readily available form. Important for iron homeostasis. Has ferroxidase activity (PubMed:9003196). Iron is taken up in the ferrous form and deposited as ferric hydroxides after oxidation (PubMed:9003196). Als
