HPX
gene geneOn this page
Summary
HPX (hemopexin, HGNC:5171) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 11p15.4, encoding Hemopexin (P02790). Binds heme and transports it to the liver for breakdown and iron recovery, after which the free hemopexin returns to the circulation.
This gene encodes a plasma glycoprotein that binds heme with high affinity. The encoded protein is an acute phase protein that transports heme from the plasma to the liver and may be involved in protecting cells from oxidative stress.

- elevated Hx predicts late graft failure in kidney transplantation (PMID:20149159)
- hemopexin directly interacts with FLVCR (PMID:20610401)

Function. Binds heme and transports it to the liver for breakdown and iron recovery, after which the free hemopexin returns to the circulation.
Subunit / interactions. Interacts with FLVCR1. (Microbial infection) Interacts with hepatitis E virus/HEV protein ORF3.
Subcellular location. Secreted.
Tissue specificity. Expressed by the liver and secreted in plasma.
Post-translational modifications. N- and O-glycosylated. O-glycosylated with core 1 or possibly core 8 glycans. O-glycosylation in the 30-40 region is minor compared to glycosylation at Thr-24 and Thr-29.
Miscellaneous. The isolated N-terminal domain binds one heme. The full-length protein also binds one heme, but at a different site. The physiological significance of this is not clear.
Similarity. Belongs to the hemopexin family.

Enriched among interaction partners
Reactome pathways and GO biological processes over-represented among this gene’s 73 IntAct physical interaction partners (hypergeometric vs the genome-wide background, BH-FDR, gene-set size 15–500, ranked by fold). A functional readout of the neighbourhood — distinct from this gene’s own memberships above, and biased toward well-studied / hub proteins, so read it as themes rather than proof.
