| Primary Identifier | MGI:1916082 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
| Chromosome | 12 | NCBI Gene Number | 68832 |
| Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
| description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables sterol ester esterase activity. Involved in cholesterol homeostasis; intracellular triglyceride homeostasis; and lipid droplet fusion. Located in lipid droplet. Is expressed in brain; brown fat; colon; small intestine; and testis. Orthologous to human LDAH (lipid droplet associated hydrolase). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a knock-out allele are viable and overtly normal with no major alterations in energy balance, glucose homeostasis, cholesterol ester or triacylglycerol metabolism.
