Protein Coding Gene : Blvra biliverdin reductase A

Primary Identifier  MGI:88170 Organism  mouse, laboratory
Chromosome  2 NCBI Gene Number  109778
Mgi Type  protein coding gene
description  FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.1.0)

Enables biliverdin reductase (NAD(P)H) activity. Predicted to be involved in heme catabolic process. Predicted to be located in cytoplasm. Predicted to be active in cytosol. Is expressed in decidua; myometrium; placenta; and spongiotrophoblast. Orthologous to human BLVRA (biliverdin reductase A).
PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a null allele exhibit high mean erythrocyte cell number, increased mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration, decreased mean corpuscular volume, decreased mean corpuscular hemoglobin, green gall bladder, yellow bile, bile composed of biliverdin rather than bilirubin, and increased endogenous oxidative stress.
