Identification
HMDB Protein ID HMDBP02077
Secondary Accession Numbers
  • 7558
Name Ferritin light chain
Synonyms
  1. Ferritin L subunit
Gene Name FTL
Protein Type Unknown
Biological Properties
General Function Involved in oxidoreductase activity
Specific Function Stores iron in a soluble, non-toxic, readily available form. Important for iron homeostasis. Iron is taken up in the ferrous form and deposited as ferric hydroxides after oxidation. Also plays a role in delivery of iron to cells. Mediates iron uptake in capsule cells of the developing kidney
