Catalyzes the oxidation of ferrous iron(II) to ferric iron(III) and stores iron in a soluble, non-toxic, readily available form (PubMed:11323407, PubMed:15201052).
Important for iron homeostasis (PubMed:11323407, PubMed:15201052).
Iron is taken up in the ferrous form and deposited as ferric hydroxides after oxidation (PubMed:11323407, PubMed:15201052).
