Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.1.0)
Predicted to enable identical protein binding activity; iron ion binding activity; and sulfur dioxygenase activity. Predicted to be involved in glutathione metabolic process and hydrogen sulfide metabolic process. Located in mitochondrion. Is expressed in gallbladder; genitourinary system; gut; nervous system; and vascular system. Used to study ethylmalonic encephalopathy. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in ethylmalonic encephalopathy. Orthologous to human ETHE1 (ETHE1 persulfide dioxygenase).
