Chromosome | 6 | NCBI Gene Number | 14789 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to enable procollagen-proline 3-dioxygenase activity. Involved in collagen biosynthetic process and peptidyl-lysine hydroxylation. Part of catalytic complex. Is expressed in several structures, including branchial arch; embryo mesenchyme; genitourinary system; limb primordium; and sensory organ. Orthologous to human P3H3 (prolyl 3-hydroxylase 3). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a knock-out allele exhibit collagen fiber fragility in the skin. [provided by MGI curators] |
