Hemopexin (HPX) is a secreted plasma glycoprotein (~60 kDa) that binds free heme with the highest affinity of any known protein (Kd < 10^-13 M). It serves as the primary scavenger of free heme released from hemoproteins during hemolysis, hemorrhage, and other pathological states. HPX transports heme to the liver for degradation and iron recovery via receptor-mediated endocytosis through LRP1/CD91 (Kd ~4 nM for LRP1). Recent cell-biology work shows HPX uptake is not exclusively LRP1-dependent: HPX co-traffics with transferrin receptor 1 (TfR1) in Rab5-positive early endosomes, and hemeβHPX endocytosis still occurs in LRP1-/- cells, implying additional receptor routes. Heme delivery via HPX initiates a cytoprotective program including HMOX1/HO-1 induction and ferritin storage. This prevents heme-mediated oxidative damage, inflammatory activation, and iron loss. HPX exhibits 1:1 heme binding at low heme concentrations and β₯2:1 (heme:HPX) at higher loads, circulating in plasma at ~0.5β1.5 mg/mL, with HPX also present in cerebrospinal fluid and lymph. The protein is synthesized primarily in hepatocytes and is an acute-phase protein induced by IL-6 and other pro-inflammatory cytokines during infection and inflammation.
| GO Term | Evidence | Action | Reason |
|---|---|---|---|
| GO:0005615 extracellular space | IBA GO_REF:0000033 | ACCEPT | Summary: HPX is a secreted plasma glycoprotein that functions in the extracellular space. UniProt annotates it as "Secreted" and notes it is "Expressed by the liver and secreted in plasma." The deep research confirms HPX "circulates as a plasma protein" with plasma concentrations of 0.5-1.5 mg/mL. This IBA annotation is phylogenetically supported and represents a core localization. Reason: Extracellular space is the primary site of HPX function where it scavenges free heme from plasma. This is unambiguously supported by UniProt subcellular location annotation and extensive literature. Supporting Evidence: file:human/HPX/HPX-deep-research-perplexity.md Hemopexin circulates in plasma at concentrations of 0.5-1.5 mg/mL and functions as a critical component of the body's defense system against heme toxicity by scavenging free heme released from hemoproteins during hemolysis, hemorrhage, and other pathological states |
| GO:0042168 heme metabolic process | IBA GO_REF:0000033 | ACCEPT | Summary: HPX is directly involved in heme metabolism by binding and transporting heme for catabolism. The deep research states that HPX delivers heme to hepatocytes where "the heme is rapidly catabolized by heme oxygenase enzymes." This IBA annotation is phylogenetically supported. Reason: HPX plays a central role in heme metabolism by scavenging free heme and delivering it to the liver for degradation by heme oxygenase, followed by iron recycling. Supporting Evidence: file:human/HPX/HPX-deep-research-perplexity.md The heme detoxification process is primarily driven by hemopexin through CD91/LRP1-mediated endocytosis in the liver, leading to heme degradation, reutilization, and iron metabolism, with some hemopexin molecules being recycled back into the plasma PMID:41384245 In cultured cells, hemeβHPX binding and heme delivery initiate a "cytoprotective" program of events (Montecinos et al., 2019), including the induction of the heme degrading enzyme heme oxygenase (HMOX1). The iron from heme induces ferritin for iron storage |
| GO:0005576 extracellular region | IEA GO_REF:0000044 | ACCEPT | Summary: HPX is a secreted protein that functions in the extracellular region. This IEA annotation from UniProtKB subcellular location mapping is correct but less specific than extracellular space (GO:0005615). Reason: Correct annotation - HPX is secreted into plasma. While extracellular space is more specific, extracellular region is also accurate. Supporting Evidence: file:human/HPX/HPX-uniprot.txt SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Secreted. |
| GO:0006879 intracellular iron ion homeostasis | IEA GO_REF:0000002 | ACCEPT | Summary: HPX contributes to iron homeostasis by recovering iron from heme during catabolism. The deep research explains that "the iron released from heme catabolism is either bound to ferritin for storage or exported from cells to hematopoietic tissues via the iron-transporter ferroportin." Reason: HPX-mediated heme scavenging is essential for iron conservation and recycling. The iron from HPX-delivered heme is recovered and redistributed for erythropoiesis. Supporting Evidence: file:human/HPX/HPX-deep-research-perplexity.md Hemopexin preserves the body's iron through this efficient recycling pathway, ensuring that iron from catabolized hemoproteins is recovered and made available for new hemoglobin synthesis rather than being lost through excretion or deposition in tissues |
| GO:0015232 heme transmembrane transporter activity | IEA GO_REF:0000002 | REMOVE | Summary: This annotation is INCORRECT. HPX is NOT a transmembrane transporter. It is a soluble plasma protein that binds heme in the extracellular space and delivers it to cells via receptor-mediated endocytosis through LRP1/CD91. HPX does not span the membrane or function as a transmembrane channel or carrier. Reason: HPX is a soluble heme-binding plasma protein, not a transmembrane transporter. The actual transmembrane transport of heme occurs through other proteins like FLVCR1. HPX functions by binding heme extracellularly and being endocytosed with its cargo. This IEA annotation from InterPro mapping is erroneous. Supporting Evidence: file:human/HPX/HPX-deep-research-perplexity.md Hemopexin enters cells through receptor-mediated endocytosis following binding to the LRP1/CD91 receptor on the cell surface. Following ligand binding, hemopexin-heme complexes are internalized via clathrin-mediated endocytosis file:human/HPX/HPX-uniprot.txt SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Secreted. |
| GO:0015886 heme transport | IEA GO_REF:0000002 | ACCEPT | Summary: HPX is the primary heme transport protein in plasma. It binds free heme with the highest affinity of any known protein and transports it to the liver for degradation. The deep research confirms this core function. Reason: Heme transport is a core function of HPX. It scavenges free heme from plasma and transports it to hepatocytes and macrophages via LRP1-mediated endocytosis. Supporting Evidence: file:human/HPX/HPX-deep-research-perplexity.md The primary and most extensively characterized function of hemopexin is the binding and scavenging of free heme with affinity exceeding all other known proteins in the human proteome file:human/HPX/HPX-uniprot.txt Binds heme and transports it to the liver for breakdown and iron recovery, after which the free hemopexin returns to the circulation. PMID:38022615 HPX plays a multifaceted role by sequestering free heme released from haptoglobin, participating in heme transport, and preventing peroxidation damage by induction of heme oxygenase 1 (HO-1) and metalloproteinase 1 genes |
| GO:0046872 metal ion binding | IEA GO_REF:0000043 | KEEP AS NON CORE | Summary: HPX does bind metal ions - specifically the iron within the heme porphyrin ring. However, this annotation is too generic and does not capture the specific function of HPX, which is heme binding rather than general metal ion binding. Reason: While technically correct (HPX binds iron as part of heme), this term is too general to be informative about HPX's specific function. Heme binding (GO:0020037) is the appropriate specific term for HPX's molecular function. Supporting Evidence: file:human/HPX/HPX-uniprot.txt Iron; Metal-binding |

Protein binding is too generic to be informative about HPX function. Reason: Generic protein binding annotation does not inform about HPX's specific function. HPX does interact with LRP1/CD91 and FLVCR1, but these should be annotated with more specific terms if needed. Protein binding without context is uninformative. Supporting Evidence: file:human/HPX/HPX-deep-research-perplexity.md [large-scale interactome study] Architecture of the human interactome defines protein communities and disease networks PMID:28514442 Architecture of the human interactome defines protein communities and disease networks. |

Too generic to be informative. Reason: Generic protein binding annotation does not inform about HPX's specific function. Large-scale interactome studies generate many non-specific annotations. Supporting Evidence: file:human/HPX/HPX-deep-research-perplexity.md [large-scale interactome study] Dual proteome-scale networks reveal cell-specific remodeling of the human interactome PMID:33961781 2021 May 6. Dual proteome-scale networks reveal cell-specific remodeling of the human interactome. |
| GO:0002639 positive regulation of immunoglobulin production | IEA GO_REF:0000107 | MARK AS OVER ANNOTATED | Summary: This annotation is transferred from ortholog data via Ensembl Compara. There is limited direct evidence for HPX regulating immunoglobulin production in humans. The deep research mentions HPX has immunomodulatory effects but focuses on cytokine regulation, not immunoglobulin production. Reason: While HPX has immunomodulatory properties, direct evidence for regulating immunoglobulin production is limited. This appears to be an over-annotation from ortholog transfer that may reflect indirect or pleiotropic effects rather than a core function. Supporting Evidence: file:human/HPX/HPX-deep-research-perplexity.md Hemopexin downregulates lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced production of the inflammatory cytokines tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) and interleukin-6 (IL-6) in mouse bone marrow-derived macrophages |
| GO:0002925 positive regulation of humoral immune response mediated by circulating immunoglobulin | IEA GO_REF:0000107 | MARK AS OVER ANNOTATED | Summary: Similar to the immunoglobulin production annotation, this is transferred from ortholog data and lacks direct experimental support for HPX in humans. Reason: This appears to be an indirect or pleiotropic effect transferred from ortholog data. Not a core function of HPX. Supporting Evidence: file:human/HPX/HPX-deep-research-perplexity.md [ortholog transfer annotation] Automatic transfer of experimentally verified manual GO annotation data to orthologs using Ensembl Compara |
| GO:0020027 hemoglobin metabolic process | IEA GO_REF:0000107 | ACCEPT | Summary: HPX scavenges heme released from hemoglobin during hemolysis, indirectly contributing to hemoglobin metabolism. The deep research describes how HPX receives heme transferred from hemoglobin in a sequential process. Reason: HPX is involved in processing hemoglobin-derived heme. It receives heme transferred from oxidized hemoglobin and transports it for catabolism. Supporting Evidence: file:human/HPX/HPX-deep-research-perplexity.md Studies highlight that the heme moiety can be transferred from hemoglobin to hemopexin, and this transfer preferentially occurs when heme is oxidized to its ferric form. The process appears to proceed in a four-stage process in which hemopexin successively transfers all four heme groups from the hemoglobin tetramer |
| GO:0042168 heme metabolic process | IEA GO_REF:0000107 | ACCEPT | Summary: Duplicate of the IBA annotation above. HPX is central to heme metabolism. Reason: Core function of HPX - heme scavenging and delivery for catabolism. Supporting Evidence: file:human/HPX/HPX-deep-research-perplexity.md The main function of hemopexin is scavenging the heme released or lost by the turnover of heme proteins such as hemoglobin and thus protecting the body from the oxidative damage that free heme can cause |
| GO:0051246 regulation of protein metabolic process | IEA GO_REF:0000107 | KEEP AS NON CORE | Summary: HPX does affect gene expression and protein metabolism through heme signaling - particularly inducing heme oxygenase-1 expression. However, this term is very broad and not specific to HPX's primary function. Reason: While HPX does affect protein metabolism through inducing HO-1 and other genes, this is a secondary/downstream effect of its heme delivery function, not a core function. Supporting Evidence: file:human/HPX/HPX-deep-research-perplexity.md Uptake of hemopexin-heme complex induced LRP/CD91-dependent heme-oxygenase 1 (HO-1) mRNA transcription in cultured monocytes |
| GO:0060332 positive regulation of response to type II interferon | IEA GO_REF:0000107 | MARK AS OVER ANNOTATED | Summary: This annotation is transferred from ortholog data. HPX does have immunomodulatory functions, but direct evidence for regulating type II interferon response specifically is limited. Reason: This appears to be a pleiotropic/indirect effect. Not a core function of HPX. The primary immunomodulatory effects of HPX are through heme sequestration and anti-inflammatory cytokine modulation. Supporting Evidence: file:human/HPX/HPX-deep-research-perplexity.md [ortholog transfer annotation] Beyond simple heme scavenging, hemopexin plays complex and multifaceted roles in immune regulation |
| GO:0060335 positive regulation of type II interferon-mediated signaling pathway | IEA GO_REF:0000107 | MARK AS OVER ANNOTATED | Summary: Same as above - transferred annotation with limited direct evidence for HPX-specific regulation of interferon signaling. Reason: Pleiotropic/indirect effect, not a core function of HPX. Supporting Evidence: file:human/HPX/HPX-deep-research-perplexity.md [ortholog transfer annotation] Beyond simple heme scavenging, hemopexin plays complex and multifaceted roles in immune regulation |
