Post Translational Modifications | Autocatalytically cleaved at low pH.the two chains remain linked via two disulfide bonds. Also proteolytically processed by TMPRSS6, several fragments being released in the extracellular space.regulates HJV activity in BMP signaling and thefore iron homeostasis. |
Function | Acts as a bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) coreceptor. Through enhancement of BMP signaling regulates hepcidin (HAMP) expression and regulates iron homeostasis. |
