Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables GDP phosphatase activity and UDP phosphatase activity. Involved in UDP catabolic process. Acts upstream of with a positive effect on 'de novo' post-translational protein folding; UDP-alpha-D-glucose metabolic process; and protein N-linked glycosylation. Located in endoplasmic reticulum. Is expressed in several structures, including genitourinary system; gut; hemolymphoid system gland; liver; and nose. Orthologous to human ENTPD5 (ectonucleoside triphosphate diphosphohydrolase 5 (inactive)). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a null allele develop progressive hepatopathy, hepatocellular tumors, and spermatogenic arrest. [provided by MGI curators] |
