PLOD2 - procollagen-lysine,2-oxoglutarate 5-dioxygenase 2 Gene
Also Known as LH2; TLH; BRKS2
Species: Homo sapiens
About PLOD2
This gene has 23 transcripts (splice variants), 214 orthologues, 5 paralogues and is associated with 3 phenotypes. Broad expression in thyroid (RPKM 48.4), fat (RPKM 35.4) and 19 other tissues.
Summary
The protein encoded by this gene is a membrane-bound homodimeric enzyme that is localized to the cisternae of the rough endoplasmic reticulum. The enzyme (cofactors iron and ascorbate) catalyzes the hydroxylation of lysyl residues in collagen-like peptides. The resultant hydroxylysyl groups are attachment sites for carbohydrates in Collagen and thus are critical for the stability of intermolecular crosslinks. Some patients with Ehlers-Danlos syndrome type VIB have deficiencies in lysyl hydroxylase activity. Mutations in the coding region of this gene are associated with Bruck syndrome. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
