CC -!- FUNCTION: Essential antioxidant peroxidase that directly reduces
CC phospholipid hydroperoxide even if they are incorporated in membranes
CC and lipoproteins (PubMed:29290465). Can also reduce fatty acid
CC hydroperoxide, cholesterol hydroperoxide and thymine hydroperoxide (By
CC similarity). Plays a key role in protecting cells from oxidative damage
CC by preventing membrane lipid peroxidation (PubMed:12566075). Required
CC to prevent cells from ferroptosis, a non-apoptotic cell death resulting
CC from an iron-dependent accumulation of lipid reactive oxygen species
CC (PubMed:12566075, PubMed:24439385, PubMed:25402683, PubMed:25922076,
CC PubMed:29290465). The presence of selenocysteine (Sec) versus Cys at
CC the active site is essential for life: it provides resistance to
CC overoxidation and prevents cells against ferroptosis (PubMed:29290465).
CC The presence of Sec at the active site is also essential for the
CC survival of a specific type of parvalbumin-positive interneurons,
CC thereby preventing against fatal epileptic seizures (PubMed:29290465).
CC May be required to protect cells from the toxicity of ingested lipid
CC hydroperoxides (PubMed:12566075). Required for normal sperm development
CC and male fertility (PubMed:19783653, PubMed:25922076). Essential for
CC maturation and survival of photoreceptor cells (PubMed:22207760). Plays
CC a role in a primary T-cell response to viral and parasitic infection by
CC protecting T-cells from ferroptosis and by supporting T-cell expansion
CC (PubMed:25824823). Plays a role of glutathione peroxidase in platelets
CC in the arachidonic acid metabolism (By similarity). Reduces hydroperoxy
CC ester lipids formed by a 15-lipoxygenase that may play a role as down-
CC regulator of the cellular 15-lipoxygenase pathway (By similarity).

CC photoreceptor cells causes retinal degeneration, decreased
CC mitochondrial biomass and decreased number of connecting cilia in these
CC cells (PubMed:22207760). Mice display neurodegeneration
CC (PubMed:18762024). Conditional knockout mice lacking Gpx4 in neurons
CC show reduced parvalbumin-positive interneurons and develop phenotypes,
CC such as cerebellar hypoplasia and seizures (PubMed:19890015,
CC PubMed:24599700). Induced disruption of Gpx4 in mice causes acute renal
CC failure and early death due to ferroptosis (PubMed:25402683).

CC -!- MISCELLANEOUS: The presence of selenolate in the active site is
CC essential for resistance to overoxidation: in the absence of reducing
CC equivalents, the enzyme can form a selenylamide intermediate during its
CC catalytic cycle, thereby preventing its irreversible overoxidation.
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:29290465}.
CC -!- MISCELLANEOUS: [Isoform Cytoplasmic]: Produced by alternative
CC initiation at Met-28 of isoform Mitochondrial. {ECO:0000305}.
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the glutathione peroxidase family.
