Primary Identifier | MGI:1914238 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 5 | NCBI Gene Number | 66988 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables peptidase activity. Predicted to be involved in proteolysis. Located in mitochondrion. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; genitourinary system; heart; nervous system; and sensory organ. Orthologous to human LAP3 (leucine aminopeptidase 3). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a knock-out allele are viable and developmentally normal with no detectable abnormalities in generating peptides presented by MHC class I under constitutive conditions or after stimulation with IFN.
