Primary Identifier | MGI:1921867 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 11 | NCBI Gene Number | 74617 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables serine-type carboxypeptidase activity. Involved in negative regulation of blood pressure. Acts upstream of or within blood vessel diameter maintenance. Predicted to be located in extracellular region. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; early conceptus; genitourinary system; gut; and musculature. Orthologous to human SCPEP1 (serine carboxypeptidase 1). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a gene trapped allele exhibit no abnormal phenotype. Mice homozygous for a knock-out allele exhibit abnormal blood vessel healing. [provided by MGI curators] |
