Gene Ontology Information

Protein Name	Hyr1p
Description	Glutathione peroxidase; functions as hydroperoxide receptor to sense intracellular hydroperoxide levels and transduce redox signal to Yap1p transcription factor; glutathione peroxidase activity is neuroprotective in models of Huntington's disease; HYR1 has a paralog, GPX1, that arose from the whole genome duplication
