PEX6 - Pex6 peroxisomal biogenesis factor 6 Gene

Also Known as Paf2; Paf-2

Species: Rattus norvegicus

Gene Type: protein coding
Gene ID: 117265

Summary

Predicted to enable ATP binding activity; ATP hydrolysis activity; and protein C-terminus binding activity. Involved in peroxisome organization. Located in peroxisomal membrane. Used to study peroxisomal disease. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Heimler syndrome 2; peroxisomal biogenesis disorder; and peroxisome biogenesis disorder 4A. Orthologous to human PEX6 (peroxisomal biogenesis factor 6). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
