Protein Coding Gene : Ddc dopa decarboxylase

Primary Identifier  MGI:94876 Organism  mouse, laboratory
Chromosome  11 NCBI Gene Number  13195
Mgi Type  protein coding gene
description  FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.1.0)

Enables aromatic-L-amino-acid decarboxylase activity. Acts upstream of or within gene expression; kidney development; and response to toxic substance. Located in cytoplasm. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; heart; nervous system; respiratory system; and sensory organ. Used to study aromatic L-amino acid decarboxylase deficiency. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Parkinson's disease; aromatic L-amino acid decarboxylase deficiency; bipolar disorder; inherited metabolic disorder; and nicotine dependence. Orthologous to human DDC (dopa decarboxylase).
PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for one knock-out allele exhibit preweaning phenotype. Mice homozygous for a different knock-in allele exhibit partial prenatal lethality, decreased body size, postnatal growth retardation, hypoactivity, increased anxiety, tremors, decreased heart rate and decreased dopamine levels.
