Synonyms | HRG1 |
Function | Heme transporter that regulates intracellular heme availability through the endosomal or lysosomal compartment (PubMed:18418376). In macrophages of the reticuloendothelial system, is the heme transporter for heme-iron recycling. Essential for macrophage iron homeostasis, transports heme from the phagolysosome to the cytoplasm during erythrophagocytosis (EP) (PubMed:23395172). |
Cellular Location | Endosome membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein. Lysosome membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein. Cytoplasmic vesicle, phagosome membrane {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q9D8M3}; Multi-pass membrane protein. Note=In macrophages, specifically localizes to the phagolysosomal membranes during erythrophagocytosis {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q9D8M3} |
Tissue Location | Highly expressed in the brain, kidney, heart and skeletal muscle. Moderately expressed in the liver, lung, placenta and small intestine. Strongly expressed in macrophages of the reticuloendothelial system (PubMed:23395172) |
