Gene cp encodes a ceruloplasmin protein, which is a ferroxidase enzyme involved in iron homeostasis and copper transport. The protein is secreted and localizes to the extracellular space. It functions to oxidize ferrous iron to ferric iron for binding to transferrin. Expression is detected in the liver, pronephros, brain, and gut during development. [-]
