GRHPR
Protein-coding gene in the species Homo sapiens
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Glyoxylate reductase/hydroxypyruvate reductase is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the GRHPR gene.[5][6][7]

This gene encodes an enzyme with hydroxypyruvate reductase, glyoxylate reductase, and D-glycerate dehydrogenase enzymatic activities. The enzyme has widespread tissue expression and has a role in metabolism. Type II hyperoxaluria is caused by mutations in this gene.[7] GRHPR mutation analysis needs to pay attention to primer design, because allele dropout can cause false-positive result.[8]
