UniProt Comments
Ferric chelate reductase probably involved in iron reduction in shoots. May participate in the transport of electrons to a Fe3+ ion via FAD and heme intermediates. May act in iron metabolism in reproductive organs (PubMed:16006655). May function as root surface cupric chelate reductase and participate in the reduction of Cu2+, for Cu+ acquisition via Cu+ transporters in response to copper deficiency (PubMed:22374396).
