Summary: Enables several functions, including identical protein binding activity; ornithine carbamoyltransferase activity; and phosphate ion binding activity. Involved in several processes, including non-proteinogenic amino acid metabolic process; response to biotin; and urea cycle. Located in mitochondrial inner membrane. Used to study ornithine carbamoyltransferase deficiency. Biomarker of cholestasis; obesity; and steatotic liver disease. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in ornithine carbamoyltransferase deficiency. Orthologous to human OTC (ornithine transcarbamylase). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
