About Gulo

Summary

Enables L-gulonolactone oxidase activity and flavin adenine dinucleotide binding activity. Involved in L-ascorbic acid biosynthetic process. Predicted to be located in endoplasmic reticulum and membrane. Predicted to be integral component of membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including cranium; liver; nasal septum; nervous system; and pancreas. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in scurvy. Orthologous to human GULOP (gulonolactone (L-) oxidase, pseudogene). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
