About Phex

Summary

Predicted to enable metalloendopeptidase activity. Acts upstream of or within bone mineralization; odontogenesis; and organophosphate metabolic process. Located in Golgi apparatus; endoplasmic reticulum; and perinuclear region of cytoplasm. Is expressed in several structures, including chondrocranium; epidermis; limb; liver; and tooth. Used to study X-linked dominant hypophosphatemic rickets and otitis media. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in X-linked dominant hypophosphatemic rickets. Orthologous to human PHEX (phosphate regulating endopeptidase homolog X-linked). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
