| Primary Identifier | MGI:1341803 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
| Chromosome | 18 | NCBI Gene Number | 16891 |
| Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
| description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.0.0) Enables phospholipase activity. Acts upstream of or within regulation of lipoprotein metabolic process. Predicted to be located in Golgi apparatus; cell surface; and early endosome. Predicted to be active in extracellular space. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; central nervous system; genitourinary system; integumental system; and sensory organ. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in cardiovascular system disease; cerebral infarction; coronary artery disease; and myocardial infarction. Orthologous to human LIPG (lipase G, endothelial type). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a null allele exhibit increased circulating total cholesterol and HDL as well as decreased monocyte binding to vascular endothelium. [provided by MGI curators] |
