Primary Identifier | MGI:96943 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 17 | NCBI Gene Number | 100503895 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables peptidase activity. Acts upstream of or within proteolysis. Located in extracellular space and mast cell granule. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; brain; immune system; integumental system; and reproductive system. Orthologous to several human genes including TPSD1 (tryptase delta 1). PHENOTYPE: A spontaneous splice-site point mutation in this gene results in constitutive loss of its expression in synovial mast cells of C57BL/6 mice. [provided by MGI curators] |
