[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/CERU_RAT CERU_RAT] | [https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/CERU_RAT CERU_RAT] Multifunctional blue, copper-binding (6-7 atoms per molecule) glycoprotein. It has ferroxidase activity oxidizing Fe(2+) to Fe(3+) without releasing radical oxygen species. It is involved in iron transport across the cell membrane. Copper ions provide a large number of enzymatic activites. Oxidizes highly toxic ferrous ions to the ferric state for further incorporation onto apo-transferrins, catalyzes Cu(+) oxidation and promotes the oxidation of biogenic amines such as norepinephrin and serotonin (By similarity). Provides Cu(2+) ions for the ascorbate-mediated deaminase degradation of the heparan sulfate chains of GPC1 (PubMed:14707133). Has glutathione peroxidase-like activity, can remove both hydrogen peroxide and lipid hydroperoxide in the presence of thiols. Also shows NO-oxidase and NO2 synthase activities that determine endocrine NO homeostasis (By similarity).[UniProtKB:P00450]<ref>PMID:14707133</ref> | ||
