| Chromosome | 3 | NCBI Gene Number | 69219 |
| Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
| description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables dimethylargininase activity. Involved in positive regulation of nitric oxide biosynthetic process and regulation of systemic arterial blood pressure. Located in mitochondrion. Is expressed in several structures, including brain; cardiovascular system; future prosencephalon; retina; and spinal cord. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in cardiovascular system disease; coronary artery disease; and hypertension. Orthologous to human DDAH1 (dimethylarginine dimethylaminohydrolase 1). PHENOTYPE: Both heterozygous and homozygous inactivation of this gene leads to increased plasma asymmetrical dimethylarginine (ADMA) levels, reduced cardiovascular nitric oxide production, and increased blood pressure.
