| Chromosome | 2 | NCBI Gene Number | 12613 |
| Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
| description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.1.0) Predicted to enable carboxylic ester hydrolase activity and glycosphingolipid binding activity. Acts upstream of or within ceramide catabolic process. Predicted to be located in extracellular space and zymogen granule. Predicted to be part of protein-containing complex. Is expressed in several structures, including gut and mammary gland. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in lipomatosis; maturity-onset diabetes of the young type 8; type 1 diabetes mellitus; and type 2 diabetes mellitus. Orthologous to human CEL (carboxyl ester lipase). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a null allele exhibit reduced cholesteryl ester absorption. [provided by MGI curators] |
