Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables retinal dehydrogenase activity. Acts upstream of or within retinal metabolic process. Located in mitochondrion and peroxisome. Orthologous to several human genes including DHRS4 (dehydrogenase/reductase 4). PHENOTYPE: Homozygous mutant mice exhibit a decreased mean serum IgG2a response to ovalbumin challenge when compared with that of controls. Female mutants exhibit an increased depressive-like response during tail suspension testing. [provided by MGI curators] |
