Related Product Information for
anti-FXN antibody
Frataxin, also known as FXN, is an iron binding protein which belongs to FRATAXIN family. It is an anti-apoptotic protein which prevents mitochondrial damage, reactive oxygen species production and act as either an iron chaperone or an iron storage protein. Frataxin is localized to the mitochondrion and regulating mitochondrial iron transport and respiration. Defects in this protein cause Friedreich ataxia.

NCBI Summary for FXN
This nuclear gene encodes a mitochondrial protein which belongs to the FRATAXIN family. The protein functions in regulating mitochondrial iron transport and respiration. The expansion of intronic trinucleotide repeat GAA from 8-33 repeats to >90 repeats results in Friedreich ataxia. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

UniProt Comments for FXN
Promotes the biosynthesis of heme and assembly and repair of iron-sulfur clusters by delivering Fe2+ to proteins involved in these pathways. May play a role in the protection against iron-catalyzed oxidative stress through its ability to catalyze the oxidation of Fe2+ to Fe3+; the oligomeric form but not the monomeric form has in vitro ferroxidase activity. May be able to store large amounts of iron in the form of a ferrihydrite mineral by oligomerization; however, the physiological relevance is unsure as reports are conflicting and the function has only been shown using heterologous overexpression systems. Modulates the RNA-binding activity of ACO1.
