    Summary
    Enables ferrous iron binding activity. Involved in detoxification of iron ion; iron ion import across plasma membrane; and locomotor rhythm. Located in Golgi apparatus. Part of intracellular ferritin complex. Is expressed in several structures, including circulatory system; extended germ band embryo; gut; head; and yolk nucleus.
