Protein-coding gene in the species Homo sapiens
Glutaredoxin 5 , also known as GLRX5 , is a
protein which in humans is encoded by the GLRX5
gene located on
chromosome 14 .
[5] This gene encodes a
mitochondrial protein, which is evolutionarily
conserved . It is involved in the biogenesis of
iron- sulfur clusters , which are required for normal
iron homeostasis . Mutations in this gene are associated with autosomal recessive
pyridoxine-refractory
sideroblastic anemia .
[6]
Structure
The GLRX5 gene contains 2
exons and encodes for a protein that is 13 kDa in size. The protein is highly expressed in
erythroid cells .
[7]
Crystal structure of the GLRX5 protein reveals that the protein likely exists as a tetramer with two
Fe-S clusters buried in the interior.
[8]
Function
GLRX5 is a
mitochondrial protein is conserved evolutionarily and plays a role in the formation of
iron-sulfur clusters , which function to maintain
iron homeostasis within the mitochondria and in the cell. GLRX5 is required for the steps in
haem synthesis that involves mitochondrial enzymes,
[9] and is therefore involved in
hematopoiesis . GLRX5 activity is required for normal regulation of hemoglobin synthesis by the iron-sulfur protein
ACO1 . The function of GLRX5 is highly conserved evolutionarily.
[10]
Clinical significance
Mutations in the GLRX5 gene have been associated with
sideroblastic anemia ,
[11] variant
glycine encephalopathy (also known as non-ketotic hyperglycinemia,
NKH ).
[12] as well as pyridoxine-refractory, autosomal recessive anemia (PRARSA).
[10] Cells with mutations in GLRX5 activity show deficiency in Fe-S cluster synthesis, which is likely causative of the observed symptoms.
