Primary Identifier | MGI:88607 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 7 | NCBI Gene Number | 13106 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables monooxygenase activity. Acts upstream of or within response to bacterium. Located in endoplasmic reticulum. Is expressed in several structures, including cardiovascular system; exocrine gland; foregut; liver and biliary system; and white fat. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in acoustic neuroma; gastrointestinal system cancer (multiple); high grade glioma; liver disease (multiple); and lung disease (multiple). Orthologous to human CYP2E1 (cytochrome P450 family 2 subfamily E member 1). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a null allele exhibit altered responses to xenobiotics including decreased urethane-induced tumors and allylnitrile- or acetamenophen-associated mortality but increased allylnitrile-induced vestibular function loss.
