| Chromosome | 12 | NCBI Gene Number | 18263 |
| Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
| description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables ornithine decarboxylase activity and protein homodimerization activity. Involved in putrescine biosynthetic process from ornithine and regulation of protein catabolic process. Acts upstream of or within kidney development and positive regulation of cell population proliferation. Located in cytosol. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; brain; genitourinary system; hemolymphoid system; and sensory organ. Used to study atrichia with papular lesions. Orthologous to human ODC1 (ornithine decarboxylase 1). PHENOTYPE: Homozygous null embryos die prior to gastrulation. [provided by MGI curators] |
