About Casp12

Primary_assembly 8: 2,642,434-2,674,037 forward strand.mRatBN7.2:CM026981.1

This gene has 3 transcripts (splice variants), 273 orthologues, 12 paralogues and is associated with 31 phenotypes. Biased expression in Adrenal (RPKM 149.4), Liver (RPKM 16.3) and 8 other tissues.

Summary

Enables cysteine-type peptidase activity; endopeptidase activity; and protease binding activity. Involved in several processes, including cellular response to manganese ion; positive regulation of striated muscle cell apoptotic process; and protein autoprocessing. Located in cytosol and nucleus. Used to study sciatic neuropathy. Biomarker of several diseases, including diabetes mellitus (multiple); heart disease (multiple); neurodegenerative disease (multiple); post-traumatic stress disorder; and ureteral obstruction. Orthologous to human CASP12 (Caspase 12 (gene/pseudogene)). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
