UniprotKB/SwissProt ID: QOR_MOUSE (P47199)
Gene Name: Cryz
Organism: Mus musculus (Mouse).
Function: Does not have alcohol dehydrogenase activity. Binds NADP and acts through a one-electron transfer process. Orthoquinones, such as 1,2-naphthoquinone or 9,10-phenanthrenequinone, are the best substrates (in vitro). May act in the detoxification of xenobiotics. Interacts with (AU)-rich elements (ARE) in the 3'-UTR of target mRNA species and enhances their stability. NADPH binding interferes with mRNA binding (By similarity).

Protein Subcellular Localization: Cytoplasm (By similarity).
