Chromosome | 7 | NCBI Gene Number | 269951 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.1.0) Enables isocitrate dehydrogenase (NADP+) activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including NADP biosynthetic process; negative regulation of glial cell proliferation; and negative regulation of matrix metallopeptidase secretion. Predicted to act upstream of or within glyoxylate cycle and tricarboxylic acid cycle. Located in cytosol and peroxisome. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; brain; genitourinary system; respiratory system; and sensory organ. Used to study bone remodeling disease. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in D-2-hydroxyglutaric aciduria 2; acute myeloid leukemia; carcinoma (multiple); and lung cancer (multiple). Orthologous to human IDH2 (isocitrate dehydrogenase (NADP(+)) 2). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a knock-out allele exhibit suppression of tumorigenesis from B16F10 melanoma cells.
