Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables polyamine oxidase activity. Acts upstream of or within spermine catabolic process. Predicted to be located in cytosol; nuclear membrane; and nucleoplasm. Predicted to be active in cytoplasm. Is expressed in several structures, including cerebral cortex; extraembryonic component; and placenta. Orthologous to human SMOX (spermine oxidase). PHENOTYPE: No notable phenotype was detected in a high-throughput screen of homozygous mice. [provided by MGI curators] |
