About EPX

Cytogenetic location: 17q22 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 17:58,192,726-58,205,174 (from NCBI)

This gene has 1 transcript (splice variant), 310 orthologues, 5 paralogues and is associated with 1 phenotype. Biased expression in bone marrow (RPKM 13.2) and spleen (RPKM 0.3).

Summary

This gene is a member of the peroxidase gene family and is expressed in eosinophils. The encoded preproprotein is proteolytically processed into covalently attached heavy and light chains to form the mature enzyme, which functions as an oxidant. The enzyme is released at sites of parasitic Infection or allergen stimulation to mediate lysis of protozoa or parasitic worms. The gene is found in a gene cluster with Other peroxidase genes on chromosome 17. Mutations in this gene result in eosinophil peroxidase deficiency. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2016]
