Primary Identifier | MGI:1336202 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 19 | NCBI Gene Number | 18947 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables triacylglycerol lipase activity. Acts upstream of or within cellular defense response; intestinal lipid catabolic process; and response to bacterium. Predicted to be located in neuron projection and zymogen granule membrane. Predicted to be active in extracellular space. Is expressed in pancreas tip epithelium. Orthologous to human PNLIPRP2 (pancreatic lipase related protein 2 (gene/pseudogene)). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for disruptions in this gene display deficient lipid absorbtion before weaning which results in growth retardation. [provided by MGI curators] |
