Gfer - growth factor, augmenter of liver regeneration

Predicted to enable flavin adenine dinucleotide binding activity and flavin-linked sulfhydryl oxidase activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including liver regeneration; negative regulation of cell death; and negative regulation of natural killer cell mediated cytotoxicity. Located in mitochondrion. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in kidney failure and renal fibrosis. Orthologous to human GFER (growth factor, augmenter of liver regeneration).
