About Scd

Primary_assembly 1: 243,269,747-243,282,562 reverse strand.mRatBN7.2:CM026974.1

This gene has 1 transcript (splice variant), 29 orthologues, 3 paralogues and is associated with 16 phenotypes. Biased expression in Liver (RPKM 4781.4), Adrenal (RPKM 4523.2) and 5 other tissues.

Summary

Enables iron ion binding activity and stearoyl-CoA 9-desaturase activity. Involved in response to fatty acid and unsaturated fatty acid biosynthetic process. Located in intracellular membrane-bounded organelle. Is integral component of membrane. Used to study carcinoma. Biomarker of hyperinsulinism. Orthologous to human SCD (stearoyl-CoA desaturase).
