Gene Summary

Gene Symbol HPX   Gene   UCSC   Ensembl
Aliases HX
Gene name hemopexin
Alternate names hemopexin, beta-1B-glycoprotein,
Gene location 11p15.4 (6441023: 6431037)     Exons: 10     NC_000011.10
Gene summary(Entrez) This gene encodes a plasma glycoprotein that binds heme with high affinity. The encoded protein is an acute phase protein that transports heme from the plasma to the liver and may be involved in protecting cells from oxidative stress. [provided by RefSeq, Apr 2009]
