Alox12 - arachidonate 12-lipoxygenase, 12S type Gene
Also Known as 12-LO; 12S-LOX
Species: Rattus norvegicus
About Alox12
This gene has 2 transcripts (splice variants), 198 orthologues, 6 paralogues and is associated with 27 phenotypes. Biased expression in Spleen (RPKM 58.3), Uterus (RPKM 42.3) and 8 other tissues.
Summary
Predicted to enable arachidonate 12(S)-lipoxygenase activity; arachidonate 15-lipoxygenase activity; and linoleate 13S-lipoxygenase activity. Involved in several processes, including fatty acid metabolic process; positive regulation of macromolecule metabolic process; and regulation of apoptotic process. Located in cytosol and sarcolemma. Biomarker of congestive heart failure; hypertension; and obesity. Orthologous to human ALOX12 (arachidonate 12-lipoxygenase, 12S type). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
