About SCARA5
Predicted to enable ferritin receptor activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including intracellular iron ion homeostasis; iron ion transmembrane transport; and protein homotrimerization. Predicted to act upstream of or within cellular response to heat. Predicted to be located in plasma membrane. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]
