Ferroxidase also known as Fe(II):oxygen oxidoreductase is an enzyme that catalyzes the oxidization of iron II to iron III:

4 Fe2+ + 4 H+ + O2 = 4 Fe3+ + 2H2O

Examples

Human genes encoding proteins with ferroxidase activity include:

  • CP – Ceruloplasmin
  • FTH1 – Ferritin heavy chain
  • FTMT – Ferritin, mitochondrial
  • HEPH - Hephaestin
