SQOR sulfide quinone oxidoreductase

Gene ID: 58472, updated on 19-Sep-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: SQR; SQRDL; CGI-44; PRO1975

Summary

The protein encoded by this gene may function in mitochondria to catalyze the conversion of sulfide to persulfides, thereby decreasing toxic concencrations of sulfide. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants that encode the same protein. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2012]
