Primary Identifier | MGI:96010 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 10 | NCBI Gene Number | 15109 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.1.0) Enables histidine ammonia-lyase activity. Acts upstream of or within histidine catabolic process. Predicted to be located in cytoplasm. Is expressed in alimentary system and liver. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in histidinemia. Orthologous to human HAL (histidine ammonia-lyase). PHENOTYPE: Mutations in this gene cause elevated histidine levels. [provided by MGI curators] |
