NCIt definition : Human GRHPR wild-type allele is located in the vicinity of 9p13.2 and is approximately
14 kb in length. This allele, which encodes glyoxylate reductase/hydroxypyruvate reductase
protein, plays a role in hydroxypyruvate and glyoxylate metabolism. Mutation of the
gene is associated with type II primary hyperoxaluria.;
