Alox5ap - arachidonate 5-lipoxygenase activating protein Gene
Species: Rattus norvegicus
About Alox5ap
This gene has 1 transcript (splice variant), 201 orthologues, 3 paralogues and is associated with 23 phenotypes. Biased expression in Lung (RPKM 111.6), Spleen (RPKM 67.3) and 9 other tissues.
Summary
Enables enzyme binding activity and identical protein binding activity. Contributes to arachidonate 5-lipoxygenase activity. Involved in leukotriene biosynthetic process; Lipoxygenase pathway; and positive regulation of acute inflammatory response. Located in cytosol; endoplasmic reticulum; and nuclear envelope. Used to study pulmonary hypertension. Biomarker of glomerulonephritis. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including asthma; brain infarction (multiple); breast cancer; cerebral palsy; and coronary artery disease (multiple). Orthologous to human ALOX5AP (arachidonate 5-lipoxygenase activating protein). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
